The ZX gauges use the 0 – 1st Echo technique to measure remaining wall thickness on uncoated material. It can be used to measure thickness, detect internal pitting and measure when the opposite surface is highly corroded.

The ZX-1, like the MX-1, is designed for simplicity. The gauge is pre-calibrated for steel* which eliminates the need for a calibration block and careful calibration by a trained inspector. It is always calibrated and ready to use - just Probe Zero and measure.
*The ZX-1 can be unlocked and reset to other material sound velocities if needed.

The ZX-2 replaces the MX-2 and has 8 preset material sound velocities + 2 user programmable.
$1525
The ZX-3 replaces the MX-3 with fully adjustable sound velocity + 8 presets. Standard Probe Zero or Automatic (No Zero Block) Probe Zero. The most important feature is the High Speed Scan mode which provides for better detection of small pitting.
$1600 / $1800
The ZX-5/ZX-5DL replaces the MX-5/MX-5DL and has all the features of the ZX-3 plus: Velocity/Nodularity mode, Differential Mode and Hi/Low Alarms.
$1775 / $1975
The ZX6/ZX-6DL replaces the MMX-6/MMX-6DL and ER versions. The ZX-6 has all the ZX-5 features plus Echo-Echo Through-Coating capability with Time Dependent Gain (TDG). TDG is used in both Pulse-Echo (P-E) and Echo-Echo (E-E) modes depending on transducer and frequency selected. TDG electronically compensates for signal loss due to increased distance and the loss of signal strength due to attenuation.
Features common to all ZX models include:
Rugged, sealed (IP65) metal housing, 150 Volt square wave pulser, Low temperature custom LCD (-22°F). 5-year warranty. Full range of probes available 1-10MHz, 3/16" to 1/2". Includes factory calibration and certification to NIST and MIL-STD-45662A. 45-hour operation from 2 standard AA batteries. Low battery indicator, Backlight with on/off/auto and low/med/high settings. Bar graph display of signal stability.
Pulse Echo measuring range of 0.025" to 36.00" (0.63 to 1219 mm) of steel (probe dependent). 200 Hz PRF with 10Hz update rate.
