The PCE-COM 20 is a lightweight, portable, non-destructive conductivity meter designed for metal surfaces. This non-destructive testing (NDT) tool measures the electrical conductivity of non-ferrous metals, such copper and aluminum, using eddy current.
Featuring an operating frequency of 60 kHz, the conductivity meter has a vast measuring range of 0.51 … 112% IACS with an accuracy of +/- 0.5% at 20°C / 68°F. ATC, lift-off correction (up to 500 μm), and a resolution of up to 0.01% IACS allow the instrument to measure coated or corroded components quickly, easily, accurately, and consistently under a variety of environmental circumstances.
