Introducing the Fischer Probe FGB2

The right choice for corrosion resistant Inconel cladding thickness measurement in heat recovery applications

What is it?

Single pole perpendicular contacting probe with wear resistant CVD coated tip, for non-destructive measurement of non-magnetic corrosion resistant coatings on steel substrates

How does it work?

Magnetic induction method

To ISO specification?

ISO 2178

Measuring Range?

0 – 5 mm

What is the USP?

CVD coated probe tip extends probe life and heat resistant shield allows measurements at elevated temperatures up to 80°C. Small probe footprint allows easy access to complex shapes and weld features.

Typical measuring applications

Thickness of Inconel and other corrosion/oxidation resistant coatings in waste heat recovery vessels

What are the main markets?

High energy usage manufacturing processes where heat recovery from flue gases is economically and environmentally beneficial

Suitable instrument types from Helmut Fischer GmbH:

DELTASCOPE® FMP10-30

DUALSCOPE® FMP100

The FGB2 contacting (tactile) probe utilises the magnetic induction method (ISO 2178), and can be paired with a range of Fischer portable instruments to provide accurate non-destructive thickness measurement of Inconel cladding  on steel. The probe can tolerate elevated contact temperatures and has a wear resistant probe tip
