Four confirmed points: material, measurement, readout and power. Full values are in the specification table below.
Steel / metal wall
ultrasonic · 0.55-500mm(steel) · ±(0.5%H+0.05)mm
0.01mm · 2.8-inch color display
3.7 V lithium battery (3000 mAh) · 141×69×27mm / 162g(excluding probe)
In practice
Track remaining wall thickness on pipes, boilers, pressure vessels and steel plate with pulse-echo ultrasound — 0.55 to 500 mm on steel at 0.01 mm resolution.

01
0.55–500 mm (steel)
Survey corroded walls on process piping, boiler shells and pressure equipment, and log the remaining thickness point by point.
The surface must be accessible: clear the coating and apply couplant at each measurement point.
02
±(0.5%H+0.05) mm
Compare readings between inspections to estimate corrosion loss, with max / avg / min grouping across a series of points.
Calibrate sound velocity to the actual material before comparing surveys.
03
3.7 V 3000 mAh
500
mm · max steel range
The built-in 3000 mAh cell charges directly, and the 2.8-inch colour screen reads out velocity, thickness and battery on site.
Standard probe is rated −10 to +50 °C; a high-temperature probe covers media below 300 °C.
Where it stopsPulse-echo needs couplant on bare metal, so painted points must be cleared locally before reading. For measuring through the coating, see the DR87A.
