The List-Magnetik Ferrite-Check 140 ferrite content meter is a compact and handy device with an integrated probe for measuring the ferrite content in austenitic and duplex steels according to the Basel standard DIN EN ISO 8249 using the magnetic induction method. With a single button and the self-explanatory multilingual menu navigation, the ferrite content meter is very easy to use. The illuminated and high-contrast OLED display shows the measurement in FN and Fe%. Perfect for measuring ferrite content in welds where to ensure that the weld has enough ferrite to guarantee the strength of the weld.
With Ferrite-Check 140, the ferrite content can be determined very accurately and quickly. To detect the weld seam on smooth or polished surfaces, the instrument can be switched to fast continuous measurement. When the probe is placed on the surface and moved along the surface, measured values are continuously stored and, after the probe is lifted off, the statistics consisting of the minimum, maximum and average values of the series of measurements are displayed.
To further process your measurement data, you can pair your measuring device with mobile Android and iOS devices, or with a Windows PC. This is made possible by Bluetooth Low Energy technology (BLE). With the Lima Connect app you can manage projects and assign the measuring points on a photo. The measurement results can be statistically evaluated and displayed graphically. The app for Android, iOS and Windows is free.
The application runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11. Older Windows versions are not tested.
