plied.
2.3 Measuring principle
2
The transmitter generates a magnetic field. This magnetic
field is capable of penetrating, bricks, wood, concrete
and steel reinforced concrete. The receiver is calibrated
in such a way that it finds the center point of the projected
field and determines the applicable distance by measur-
ing the strength of the magnetic field between the two
units of the tool. The slope adapter has been designed for
use together with the transpointer so that the magnetic
field can be measured even when the receiver is placed
at an angle to the transmitter.
NOTE
The PX 10 transpointer is influenced by metal objects.
Whereas symmetrically arranged steel reinforcement in
concrete presents virtually no problem, welded reinforce-
ment, reinforcing mesh, flat sheet metal or solid metal
columns have a very negative effect on the performance
of the system.

Right of technical changes reserved.
NOTE
The proximity of welded reinforcement, sheet metal or metal framing to the tool may have a considerable negative
effect on its accuracy. When wall thickness measurements are made through welded reinforcing mesh, the distance
displayed is approx. 20% greater. At temperatures below -10 °C (14 °F) considerable inaccuracy may occur with wall
thicknesses greater than 50 cm (1.64 ft).
