TM8811/TM8812 Digital Ultrasonic Thickness Meter

Digital Thickness Meter

The TM8811 and TM8812 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges are portable non-destructive testing (NDT) instruments designed for measuring the thickness of metals and other ultrasonic-conductive materials without causing damage to the test piece.

Suitable for inspection of pressure vessels, pipelines, storage tanks, boilers, machine components and fabricated structures, these ultrasonic thickness meters provide fast and reliable measurements for preventive maintenance, corrosion monitoring and quality assurance. The TM8812 offers enhanced measurement performance and optional PC connectivity, while the TM8811 provides an economical solution for everyday thickness measurement applications.

Key Features

  • 2-in-1 ultrasonic thickness gauge with built-in material velocity measurement.
  • Measures metal and non-metal wall thickness accurately without damaging the material.
  • Wide measuring range from 1.0 mm to 300 mm (depending on material).
  • Automatic probe zero calibration for reliable and consistent readings.
  • Adjustable sound velocity (500-9000 m/s) for different materials.
  • High-resolution LCD with backlight for easy viewing in low-light environments.
  • Compact, portable design with low battery indication and auto power-off.
  • Includes Calibration Certificate, batteries, coupling gel, carrying case, and 90-day warranty.

Description

The TM8811 and TM8812 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges are professional handheld instruments designed for fast, accurate and non-destructive measurement of material thickness. Using ultrasonic pulse technology, these instruments determine the thickness of a material by measuring the time taken for ultrasonic waves to travel through the test material and return to the probe.

These thickness gauges are ideal for inspecting materials where access is available from only one side, making them particularly valuable for corrosion monitoring, preventive maintenance and quality assurance applications.

Both models support measurement of a wide variety of materials including steel, cast iron, aluminium, brass, copper, zinc, quartz glass, polyethylene, PVC and other ultrasonic conductive materials.

The TM8812 offers improved measurement accuracy, a wider sound velocity range and optional computer connectivity via RS-232 or Bluetooth, making it suitable for users requiring greater flexibility or data management capabilities. The TM8811 provides a cost-effective solution for routine thickness measurements while maintaining dependable performance for everyday industrial inspections.

With automatic memory for material selection, coupling indication, high-sensitivity ultrasonic detection and a compact portable design, both models are well suited for engineers, inspectors, maintenance personnel and quality control professionals working in the field or workshop.
