An Intrinsically Safe Thickness Gauge is a specialized ultrasonic NDT tool designed for measuring wall thickness and monitoring corrosion in potentially explosive atmospheres. These devices are electronically limited to prevent any spark or thermal effect that could ignite flammable gases, vapors, or dust, making them mandatory for inspections in high-risk environments.
This category features high-precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges (UTG) that carry global safety certifications such as ATEX and IECEx. These rugged, handheld units allow technicians to perform critical safety inspections on live pipelines, storage tanks, and offshore platforms without the need for a “Hot Work Permit” or shutting down operations. Our selection provides the same laboratory-grade accuracy as standard gauges—including Echo-to-Echo capabilities to ignore coatings—while ensuring the highest level of operator safety in the most volatile industrial conditions.
