Profometers: Rebar Diameter and Cover Meter-PM-8000

Rebar Diameter and Cover Meter – PM-800 (Profometer Series)

This new generation profometer allows for quick and precise detect the position, diameter and depth of reinforcement bars. This device is especially suitable for non-destructive investigations on existing concrete structures. The compact, lightweight and wireless sensor is provided with a screen that indicates the location of the bars and the information about diameter and depth.

The PM-8000 Rebar Diameter and Cover Meter is a high-precision, non-destructive testing instrument designed to detect the location, depth, and diameter of rebars embedded in concrete structures. It employs advanced electromagnetic pulse induction technology to provide accurate and reliable measurements, making it ideal for civil engineering inspections, quality control, and structural assessments.

The PM-800 Profometer is a next-generation rebar diameter and cover meter developed for fast, accurate, and non-invasive assessment of reinforcement in concrete structures. Utilizing electromagnetic pulse induction technology, this compact and rugged device detects rebar position, spacing, depth, and estimates diameter—without damaging the structure. Its high-resolution touchscreen and intuitive software ensure ease of operation, making it ideal for field engineers, QA/QC professionals, and inspectors.

Whether used for structural assessments, compliance checks, or maintenance planning, the PM-800 delivers critical reinforcement data with unmatched reliability and speed.
