The Profoscope+ was originally designed to meet the pressing needs of the construction and building industry looking for an accurate rebar detecting instrument that is also affordably priced. The new Profoscope+ offers the additional benefits of complete data storage through the use of manual or automatic storage modes. The Swiss-made Profoscope+ is small, light and has no connection cables. The ergonomically designed instrument fits comfortably in the palm of the hand for easy one-handed operation and provides both visual and acoustic indications of what lies directly beneath the concrete surface.

At first glance, the Profoscope+ user sees an apparently conventional instrument with a large graphic LCD display and selectable backlight that can locate rebar, measure cover depth and rebar diameter. However, the special positioning of the electromagnetic coils allows a symmetrical triangulation of the rebar configuration and thus tells the user that the Profoscope is actually located between two rebars or directly on top of one. This is a best-in-class feature that sets the Profoscope apart from any other similar instrument on the market and is especially useful when the user needs to drill into reinforced concrete and avoid damaging the expensive rotary drills and carbide drill bits.

Other benefits of the Profoscope+: a fully-integrated and compact design, user-friendly operation, a language-independent menu, wide measurement ranges, regional settings, increased durability and much more. The Profoscope is supplied with a start-up test kit, a custom-made canvas bag as well as the necessary product documentation and accessories.

The Profoscope+ also offers automatic collection of data and real time visualization of rebars to increase efficiency on the construction site. The various data storage modes of the Profoscope+ make note taking obsolete. The combination of the unique midpoint detection algorithm and the integration of the new memory function allows the fastest possible measuring performance at an affordable price.

Applications and Features

• Unique feature quickly determines midpoint between bars for drilling applications
• Rebar detection (location and orientation)
• Measurement of concrete cover depth to the rebar
• Measurement of rebar diameter when unknown or to confirm
• Both manual and automatic data storage are supported. All data can be exported and analyzed using the ProfoLink software to assess the results.
• Durability – sealed housing for use in a rough environment for long lasting performance.

The new Profoscope+ is a valuable tool for concrete testing applications and would be typically used by general contractors, civil contractors, drilling specialists, electrical contractors, civil engineers, educational institutes, building inspectors and plumbing contractors.

User-Friendly Operation

The Profoscope+ is designed to permit single handed operation. All functions can be programmed/activated using the two function keys and the navigation. The instrument is compact, light and robust suitable for use on a construction site.

Start-Up Test Kit

Every Profoscope is supplied with a start-up test kit as standard. This kit allows the user to familiarize him/herself with the operation of the instrument in a comfortable, controlled environment to avoid wasting valuable time on site.
