Overview
The Defelsko 6000PRBEXT telescopic probe expander is a lightweight and portable device that extends the reach of the PosiTector 6000 series of common wired probes to 124 cm (49 in), ergonomically for measurement of position above or below your feet. It includes a built-in mount for holding the body of the PosiTector measurement instrument for comfortable one-handed operation.
Features
1) Suitable for PosiTector 6000 FS, NS, FNS, FXS, FNDS, NAS and FTS probes.
2) Provides an extension range of up to 124 centimeters (49 inches) and folds down to 47 centimeters (18.5 inches) for easy storage.
3) An articulated probe holder with a rubber stabilizing ring provides firm probe contact at odd angles.
4) The Gage body is installed firmly to hold the PosiTector in place.
5) Removable probe mounts can be integrated into longer extensions such as monopods and drone/robot test systems.
Principle
The telescopic probe expander physically extends the Measurement range of the PosiTector 6000 series probe through a retractable rod structure. Its articulated probe bracket can adjust the angle to ensure that the probe is in stable contact with the measured surface. At the same time, the main body mount fixes the measurement instrument host on the expander, and the operator can carry out remote measurement by holding the far end of the expander.
Applications
Suitable for areas requiring remote or hard-to-reach locations for Coating thickness measurement, high or low position measurement, integrated into automated inspection systems (e.g. drones, robots)
Steps
Install the PosiTector 6000 series mainframe onto the expander's Gage body mount.
2) Install the applicable PosiTector 6000 probe onto the removable probe holder at the front end of the expander.
3) According to the measurement needs, pull the extension rod to the appropriate length (up to 124 cm).
4) Adjust the angle of the articulating probe holder to ensure that the probe is in stable contact with the surface to be tested.
5) Perform measurement operations.
Notice
• Please ensure that the probe model is compatible with the expander (for PosiTector 6000 FS, NS, FNS, FXS, FNDS, NAS, and FTS probes).
• Check whether the connection parts of the expander are firm and whether the rubber stability ring of the probe bracket is intact before use.
• When operating in the fully extended state, please pay attention to keep the equilibrate to avoid the expander shaking due to the contact force of the probe.
• After use, it is recommended to fold the expansion rod to 47 cm for easy portability and storage.
• Removable probe holder facilitates integration into Miscellaneous systems (e.g. monopods, drones), ensuring a secure connection when integrated.
