What is the benefit of this measurement?
The environmental conditions during the pre-treatment and application of a coating system are important factors that influence the long-term performance of coatings on steel structures. Dew point meters can be used to monitor environmental conditions before, during and after coating. An electronic dew point meter is ideal for surface preparation in accordance with ISO 8502-4 and determines the likelihood of dew formation on structures to be coated.
DeFelsko offers three types of measuring devices for measuring environmental conditions: Dew point meters, wind speed sensors and infrared thermometers.
Complies with ISO 8502-4, BS 7079-B4, ASTM D3276, IMO PSPC, SSPC-PA7, US Navy NSI 009-32 and Navy NAVSEA 009-32
Surface measurements
Digital dew point measuring devices
PosiTector DPM dew point meter
Depending on the model selected, the PosiTector DPM dew point meters measure and store climatic conditions such as: relative humidity (%RH), air temperature, surface temperature, dew point temperature, the difference between surface and dew point temperature (delta), wind speed and wet bulb temperature.
Available options:
- Larger, impact-resistant 2.8-inch colour touchscreen with redesigned keyboard for fast menu navigation
- Weatherproof, dustproof and waterproof housing in accordance with IP65
- Fast-responding precision sensors deliver accurate, repeatable measured values
- Auto-log mode records environmental parameters at user-selected time intervals
- Each PosiTector probe can be attached to a single base unit
- USB, WiFi and Bluetooth connection to PosiSoft PC, Mac and smartphone software
- Includes calibration certificate showing traceability to NIST ( long form )
Complies with ISO 8502-4, BS 7079-B4, ASTM D3276, IMO PSPC, SSPC-PA7, US Navy NSI 009-32 and Navy NAVSEA 009-32.
Autonomous dew point data logger
PosiTector DPM L Dew Point Meter Logger
The PosiTector DPM L Dew Point Meter Logger is attached to steel structures to independently measure and record environmental parameters for up to 200 days. The stored readings can be downloaded using a PosiTector Advanced meter or an Apple/Android smart device.
Complies with ISO 8502-4, BS 7079-B4, ASTM D3276, IMO PSPC, SSPC-PA7 and US Navy NSI009-32.
Non-contact infrared surface temperature thermometer
PosiTector IRT infrared thermometer
The non-contact PosiTector IRT infrared thermometer measures surface temperatures in areas where conventional sensors do not work, such as hard-to-reach areas, moving parts, freshly sprayed powder coatings and objects with temperatures above the range of direct contact sensors.
