Home / Products / Dakota NDT / Corrosion Gauges / MVX

The MVX finishes the line of MX gauges with class. This thing is loaded with all of the features of the MX gauges and a lot more. Four selectable display options: RF, Rectified, B-Scan, and Large Digits. An internal data logger that stores a total of 12,000 readings and waveforms, 64 user custom definable setups, selectable transducer table for improved linearity, thru paint mode with the single press of a button, multiple calibration and material selection options, and auto waveform find – just to mention a few! Equipped with a single element flaw prove-up mode for basic angle beam inspections. This is all nicely packaged in a very mini portable aluminum extrusion for extra durability and portability! Our DakView java-based PC or MAC OSX software makes this thing a complete kit, and then some!
