Cath-Tech™ Hexcorder Millenium
DCVG / CIPS / GPS

Close Interval Survey & Voltage Gradient Survey Tool


The ultimate survey tool, capable of performing close interval surveys
(CIPS) as well as direct current voltage gradient (DCVG) surveys.

Description

The Cath-Tech™ Hexcorder Millennium GPS is the ultimate survey tool, capable of performing close interval surveys (CIPS) as well as direct current voltage gradient (DCVG) surveys.

  • CIPS for Potential Surveys
  • DCVG for Coating Condition Surveys

Like all Cath-Tech™ survey equipment, the Hexcorder Millennium is equipped with a 12-satellite GPS engine for interruption synchronization as well as coordinate display and logging. It can store GPS time and pipeline chainage. It comes with 1 Mbyte of non-volatile CMOS RAM, factory upgradeable to 2 Mbytes. It comes with a large graphic LCD display for text and graphs, and 40-key QWERTY keyboard for data entry. It is shipped ready to use and includes new CuCuSO4 half cells and a spool of wire.

CIPS + DCVG + GPS

The Hexcorder Millennium with GPS is a fully integrated close-interval potential survey and direct current voltage gradient survey instrument with a proven track record. It is a purpose-built instrument designed by corrosion engineers for use by corrosion professionals.

The unit can simultaneously measure and record structure-to-electrolyte potentials as well as the voltage gradient between two half-cells. It can measure and store the rectifier ON and Instant OFF structure-to-electrolyte potentials, voltage gradients, chainage, GPS coordinates, and UTC time. It has a built-in active filter to minimize the effect of induced AC voltages on the measured structure-to-electrolyte potentials. The active AC filter combined with software rejection results in over 80 dB of AC rejection.

The unit is equipped with exclusive Cath-Tech™ Waveform Software to capture and display electrical interference on the structure-to-electrolyte potential. No special software is required for analysis. The output of the Hexcorder Millennium is comma-delimited ASCII text, which can be imported directly into any spreadsheet or database software.
