Proceq Profometer 4 Manual -

The Profometer 4 operates on the . A coil in the probe is energized by a current pulse, creating a magnetic field. When this field encounters a metallic object like a rebar, it induces eddy currents, which in turn generate a secondary magnetic field. Precision: It typically offers an accuracy of

Move the probe slowly across the concrete surface. The signal strength will increase as you approach a bar.

Essential in congested areas where closely spaced bars might otherwise result in an artificially shallow cover reading. 4. Maintenance and Calibration

The is a classic eddy current pulse induction instrument designed for the non-destructive location of reinforcing bars (rebar) and the measurement of concrete cover depth. While succeeded by advanced digital units like the Profometer PM-8000 or PM-600 , the Profometer 4 remains a staple for on-site quality control due to its reliability. 1. Core Measurement Principles The Profometer 4 operates on the

Accuracy in cover measurement depends on the input bar diameter. If the diameter is unknown, the device can provide an estimation once positioned directly over the bar.

When the visual indicator (rifle scope or LED) is centered, the probe is directly over the rebar. Precision: It typically offers an accuracy of Move

While the basic "Spot" mode is standard, the Profometer line supports specialized scans:

If you "chase" the signal up and down and it remains consistent, you are following the length of the rebar. 3. Advanced Measuring Modes

Hold the probe in the air, away from any metal objects, and press the Zero button. This calibrates the device to the current environmental conditions.
