INTRODUCTION 

 
Troxler, the leader in density gauge technology, now offers the 
Model 2701-B PaveTracker Plus (see Figure 1–1), an 
electromagnetic sensing device that quickly gives an indication of 
the density of asphalt pavement. The advanced technology in the 
patented PaveTracker Plus allows rapid and reliable measurements. 
The PaveTracker Plus can be used on existing asphalt pavements or 
on freshly placed mats. The unit is ideal for performing quick 
quality control measurements to check for segregation, areas of low 
density, and overall pavement uniformity. 
 
The PaveTracker Plus is a precision device that is designed to 
provide many years of trouble-free service. As any precision device, 
the PaveTracker Plus requires reasonable care and maintenance to 
ensure its accuracy and reliability. The user should: 
 

♦

 

Keep the unit clean and free of all road debris. 

♦

 

Return the unit to Troxler for yearly re-calibration and 
inspection. 

♦

 

Ensure that the unit remains sealed at all times. There are 

no 

field-serviceable components 

inside the unit. Opening the case 

will affect the integrity of the unit and therefore will void the 
warranty.
