Mobile Ultrasonic Hardness Tester - SAUTER HO 10K

For portable hardness testing on installed or sensitive workpieces, the SAUTER HO 10K works by the UCI ultrasonic method with a 100 N test force (HV 10). The only microscopic indent keeps the measurement almost non-destructive, while the higher test force averages reliably over coarser microstructure.

Benefits

• Almost non-destructive: UCI method with 100 N test force and a microscopic indentation.
• Force for coarse structure: HV 10 averages over larger areas than lower forces and suits forgings, castings and welds.
• Versatile readout: HV, HB, HRA, HRB, HRC and tensile strength in MPa.
• Standard-compliant: meets DIN 50159-1, ASTM A1038-2005 and JB/T9377-2013.
• On-board evaluation: memory for 1000 reading groups of 20 values each, mini statistics with max, min, mean and standard deviation, USB transfer.
