Move the probe slowly across the concrete surface. The signal strength will increase as you approach a bar.
Before beginning any investigation, ensure you are not wearing metal jewelry or watches, as these can interfere with the magnetic field.
The center line of the probe indicates the precise location of the rebar. 2. Essential Operating Steps proceq profometer 4 manual
If you "chase" the signal up and down and it remains consistent, you are following the length of the rebar. 3. Advanced Measuring Modes
Used to map a grid of reinforcement over a larger rectangular area, producing a "heat map" of cover depths. Move the probe slowly across the concrete surface
When the visual indicator (rifle scope or LED) is centered, the probe is directly over the rebar.
Essential in congested areas where closely spaced bars might otherwise result in an artificially shallow cover reading. 4. Maintenance and Calibration The center line of the probe indicates the
Ideal for long-distance measurements across a single layer of rebars.
