Varied uses
The SonoDur3 makes it possible to measure soft aluminium (20HB) through to harder metals (approx. 1600HV) using a probe.
Usable probes
The device is suitable for the operation of manual and motorised measurement probes with test forces between 1N and 100N, as well as long probes for testing applications at measurement positions that are difficult to reach.
Integrated memory
4GB of memory (can be expanded to 32GB) offers enough storage space for an almost limitless number of measured values. The ease by which data can be transmitted via USB makes documentation much easier. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections are also possible.
Constituent parts of the set (but without hardness measuring probe!):
- Hardness testing device SonoDur2 with data logger and export from data to PC via USB flash drive
- Mains unit SONO-NG
- SONO2-NG/USB USB cable
- Probe connection cable SONO2-HM
- Case SONO2-TK-1
- SONO2-CD, product USB flash drive including instruction manual
- SONO2-Protect, protective sheet for the touchscreen
- Manufacturer certificate
Hardness measuring device SonoDur2 will be delivered in a high quality aluminium case.
