Locating steel reinforcement bars and metal pipes is essential in the construction and maintenance of structures. Damage caused when a drill or a fastener makes contact with a pipe is costly. A drill making contact with rebar or tendon ducts, however, not only destroys the drill bit but also can lead to serious structural damage.
Before carrying out any maintenance work, it is vital to identify the location, orientation and depth of sub-surface metalwork. Elcometer has three covermeters in their range, these are listed below

No covermeter will find a second or subsequent layer of steel reinforcement in concrete. Nor will they locate pre-stressing or post tensioning tendons deep inside the concrete beneath the top reinforcement. The Elcometer Borehole Probe / Tendon Duct Locator makes the Elcometer covermeters the only gauges in the world that are designed specifically for finding steel reinforcement in concrete below the top layer of rebar. It can also locate steel reinforcement in concrete such as rebars or tendon ducts deep within the concrete - avoiding catastrophic errors!

The Kolectric 8020 Concrete MicroCovermeter is a microprocessor controlled unit weighing only 500g, and is used for the non-destructive checking of steel reinforcement in concrete structures and components, such as precast lintels, staircases and reinforced panels. The 8020 also has Data logging capabilities and is similar to the 8010 with increased features. If bar sizing is critical then the 8020 is the receommended Kolectric unit. It complies with BS1881 PART 204. Conforms to ACI, BS, CP, DIN, EC, SIA. Cover Accuracy : ±1mm or ± 2%. Cover Resolution : 16 mm bars at 60 mm. Cover Range : up to 360 mm. Bar Sizing Accuracy :± 0,5mm to ± 1.5 mm. Bar Sizing Resolution : 0.1 mm. Bar Sizing Range : 6mm bar can be sized down to 60mm, 40mm bar can be sized down to 80mm of cover.

The TC110 Concrete Covermeter / Rebar Locator is used to detect the thickness of concrete covering layer and rebar diameter. Besides, it can detect the location of magnetic substance and electric conductor in non-magnetic and non-conductive medium, e.g. cable inside wall body and water & heating pipe etc. It is a kind of intelligent nondestructive test equipment possessing the functions of automatic detection, data memory and output. The instrument has a scanning mode which allows you to view the results on the screen as you scan an area. Range : 6 to 180 mm Accuracy : +/-1mm
