 Corrosion Analysis allows the contractor to limit the maintenance tasks on reinforced concrete to the areas where it is really required. The Canin+ is the fastest instrument for corrosion analysis, offering a practical, cost-effective approach to the investigation of reinforced concrete. Corrosion analysis with the Canin+ allows a rapid, comprehensive test of the site and provides a fast assessment of locations where corrosion is likely to take place.
Two factors contribute to the improved performance of this concrete test hammer over its predecessors:
The Canin+ combines two methods for corrosion analysis of concrete in one instrument:
- Corrosion analysis with the half–cell potential method:
accurate field potential measurements aid in detecting active corrosion in rebars.
- Corrosion analysis with the resistivity method:
the instrument measures the specific electrical resistivity of concrete.
Product Variations:
Variations of the Canin+ are available depending on the accessories selected:
- Best for corrosion analysis in areas below 20m2:
Canin+ rod electrode for potential measurements
- Best for corrosion analysis in areas between 20m2 and 100m2:
Canin+ with 1–wheel electrode for potential measurements
- Best for corrosion analysis in areas over 100m2:
4–wheel electrode for potential measurements
- Best for complementary diagnostics:
Canin+ with Wenner probe for resistivity measurements
Features:- Immediate presentation of test area and reading directly on the instrument’s display
- Total memory for 235’000 readings which can be stored
- For further analysis, the Canin ProVista Software allows downloading, presenting and editing data measured by this instrument for corrosion analysis
Applications:- Rapid corrosion analysis of large areas using the 1– and the 4–Wheel Electrodes
- Accurate location of areas of active rebar corrosion
- Measurement of concrete resistivity to determine the probability of corrosion
