About Nondestructive Testing (NDT) Conductivity and Resistivity Meters

Non-destructive testing (NDT) conductivity meters and resistivity meters are devices for measuring the electrical conductivity and/or electrical resistivity of solid media to determine the characteristics of its constituent materials. Typically, NDT conductivity meters and NDT resistivity meters are used with metals or other materials and components. Electrical conductivity measures the efficiency with which atoms in a metal or other material transmit electrons. Electrical resistivity is the electrical resistance of a body of unit length and unit cross-sectional area or unit weight. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows the movement of electrical charge.  


Products & Services Related to Nondestructive Testing (NDT) Conductivity and Resistivity Meters
Corrosion and Electrochemical Instruments
Corrosion and electrochemical instruments use a variety of methods to detect and measure corrosion and electrochemical conditions in plant machinery, field equipment, batteries, fuel cells, colloids, and other solutions or systems.
Eddy Current Instruments
Eddy current instruments are nondestructive testing (NDT) devices that induce detectable eddy currents in conductive materials. They are used to detect flaws, determine thickness, inspect welds, measure conductivity, and sort alloys.
Flaw Detectors
Flaw detectors are nondestructive testing instruments that can detect or measure defects in raw materials or finished products.
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) Equipment
Non-destructive testing (NDT) equipment is used to detect, inspect, and measure flaws, bond integrity, and other material conditions without permanently altering or destroying the examined part or product.
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) Material Testers
Non-destructive testing (NDT) material testers are devices, machines and equipment that are used to determine residual stress, alloy type, hardness, microstructure, elasticity, heat treatment and other material conditions without permanently altering or destroying the material being examined.
Ultrasonic Instruments
Ultrasonic instruments use beams of high frequency, short wave signals to inspect, monitor, and measure materials and components.
X-ray Instruments and X-ray Systems
X-ray instruments and X-ray systems use penetrating X-rays or gamma radiation to capture images of the internal structure of a part or finished product.
