Pizzi Instruments’ removable deformometer 200 is a portable mechanical crackmeter with a base of 200 mm used for the control and measurement of the behavior of small cracks and fractures or the movement of structural joints.
It is made either of a stainless steel or Invar body, complete and with tapered reference tips for measurement and an indicator dial, either analog or digital. The accuracy of the instrument is centesimal for the stainless model and millesimal for the invar model. The standard base size is 200mm and the measuring range is 5 mm.
The measuring points are equipped with small circular seats positioned either side of the fissure into which the tips of deformometer are inserted during the survey. Its main advantages are: -non-invasiveness -ease of handling and simplicity of installation and reading -speed of execution.
Special design features make the instrument sturdy and totally protected from humidity and other weather conditions often found in environments subject to monitoring. The instrument comes with a calibrated control template (stainless steel or Invar), for verification and periodic calibration of the instrument and a shockproof carrying case.
Important feature of all our deformometers and crackmeters, as well as many of our other instruments, is total compatibility with products manufactured and developed by the Officine Galileo of Florence.
For specific needs and requests, we are able to design and manufacture customized products different from standard.
