The DEUTROMETER is an instrument for measuring magnetic direct and alternating fields in the low frequency range (20 Hz to 500 Hz). With a special probe, the measurement of UV and white light illuminance is also possible.
In the field of non-destructive crack detection of magnetizable workpieces, the instrument is used for
• Measurement of the tangential field strength during magnetisation
• Measurement of the residual field after demagnetization
• Measurement of the flux density (Teslameter)
For a standard-compliant MT and PT test, the viewing conditions need to be monitored. A special probe, the DEUTROLIGHT sensor, enables the combined measurement of UV and white light illuminance. Here, the lux illuminance measurement is not influenced by the UV radiation, so that a measurement (in compliance with ISO 3059) is possible even when the UV lamp is switched on.
