Pintech Wet Sponge Tester

The Paint Test Equipment Pintech is a multi-voltage 9V / 67.5V / 90V Pinhole Detector which uses the wet sponge principle to detect through pinholes, cracks and damaged areas in coatings up to a maximum thickness of of 500 microns

Operation is by the application of a wet sponge to the coating. The wetting agent penetrates any pinhole and makes a conductive path through to the substrate, the Pintech automatically detects this conductive path and sounds an audible alarm and also gives a visual warning by a flashing red indicator that a pinhole fault has been detected. The flaw can now be marked for repair and further testing resumed.

The Pintech has individual selectable precision test voltages of 
9 Volt / 67.5 Volt and 90 Volt which comply with ASTM G62A, ASTM G6 and NACE RP 0188-88 specifications.

Generally 9V will test up to 300 micron and 90 Volt will test up to 500 micron.

Accuracy of test voltages ±1%, ±0.1 Volt.

The Pintech is supplied ready to use in a Carrying Case complete with Handle / Sponge, Earth Cable and Battery fitted,
