Liability

The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damages arising from

•failure to observe the instructions in this manual,

•use of the device for unintended purposes,

•non-compliance with the safety instructions.

The manufacturer assumes no liability for printing errors or other

inaccuracies in the instruction manual.

Safety instructions

•Recharge the battery when the corresponding icon appears on the

display. Do not leave the device unattended while charging.

•Power off the device before exchanging the battery.

•Do not use the device if the housing is damaged.

•Observe the operating conditions (e.g. operating temperature)

specified under “Technical data” to prevent damage to the device.

•Though the housing seals have been tested extensively, it is

possible that water may enter the device during heavy rainfall. If

this happens, stop operating the device and ensure it is completely

dry before using it again.

•When taking measurements on hot asphalt make sure only the

sensor unit contacts the asphalt. Electronics as well as mechanical

parts of the control unit are designed for the from −10 °C to

+50 °C only.

•Observe local safety regulations when performing measurements.

•Mechanical loads, such as permanent vibrations or impacts on a

hard surface may cause damages and malfunctions such as

measurement errors. In this case, the device has to be checked by

the manufacturer and, if necessary, has to be recalibrated.

•The device may only be used or moved when the telescopic tube is

locked.

•No structural changes may be made (replacement or additional

attachment of objects).

•The device may only be used for thickness measurements according

to ASTM E3209, AASHTO T-T359 or German Standard TP D-StB 12.

•Warranty service will only be accepted if only original accessories or

reflector types have been used. The device is calibrated by the

manufacturer with standardized reflectors (standard procedure).

Differing material may cause wrong measurement results as the

calibrations do not match with reflector types.

1Method and requirements

MIT-SCAN-T3 provides the user with accurate and non-destructive

measurement of asphalt and concrete pavement layer thickness in

accordance with ASTM E3209

, AASHTO T-T359

and German

standard TP D-StB 12

The device uses pulse induction, a further development of eddy current

technology. It requires that aluminum or galvanized steel reflectors

are installed under each layer to be measured.

The measurement technique is based on the principles of magnetic

induction tomography and analyzes the temporal and spatial course of

eddy current fields generated in standardized reflectors.

MIT-SCAN-T3 can be used on all layers of surfacing materials

common in building and road construction such as bituminous

composites, concrete or blast furnace slag. Areas of use include new

road/ road structure construction, sub-base construction as well as

pavement inspection and rehabilitation of existing roads

road construction”, issued by FGSV Verlag GmbH.

1.1 Measuring method

Electromagnetic layer thickness measurement with MIT-SCAN-T3 is

based on pulse induction technology. The method requires reflectors to

act as antipoles at the base of the layer being measured (s. section

1.2, p. 9).

The MIT-SCAN-T3 measuring probe is equipped with an emission coil

and four sensors (s. Fig. 2 Emission field).

The emission coil emits a magnetic field at regular intervals. This field

induces a current in the installed antipole (s. Fig. 3 Induced current).

As it subsides temporally, a response field is generated (s. Fig. 4

Response field) which in turn is recorded by the four sensors and

evaluated by the device.

During a measurement run over a reflector, up to 200 pulses are

emitted and signals recorded. This data quantity ensures the high

reliability of the measuring method.
