Launch of the Pundit Lab+ Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Instrument from Proceq, Switzerland

Pundit Lab provides exceptional versatility for a pulse velocity test instrument (NDT in Concrete structures), offering not only the traditional transit time and pulse velocity measurement, but also path length measurement, perpendicular crack depth measurement and surface velocity measurement. The instrument also includes an integrated waveform display for manual triggering.

This feature set has been extended in Pundit Lab+ to include on-site applications requested by customers. The new features provide compressive strength estimation, compressive strength estimation in combination with a rebound hammer value (SONREB method), a real time stamp for all measurements, a review list allowing readings to be checked on site without a computer and an integrated gain stage that makes an external amplifier redundant.

The transducer range has also been improved and extended to include shear wave transducers for Testing Poisson’s ratio and modulus of elasticity, exponential transducers for rough surfaces and higher frequency transducers up to 500 kHz for rock and ceramics testing.

Full remote control is possible with the Windows based software Pundit Link or via 3rd party software. This provides the user with online data acquisition and data logging functionality.

The Pundit Lab+ comes with a 24-months warranty on all electronic parts. When purchasing the instrument, the buyer is also offered the possibility to purchase extended warranty coverage.
