Perma™ : Rapid Chloride Permeability Testing
Laboratory device for measuring the penetration of chloride in concrete

Predict the Service-Life of Concrete Structures

Perma is a laboratory device for measuring the electrical resistance of concrete against the penetration of chloride (RCPT). This data is used to estimate the chloride diffusion coefficient of concrete for predicting service life, durability-based design, and durability-based quality control, of concrete structures. Perma is electrically certified for rapid chloride penetrability tests in concrete laboratories. This device is the only RCPT device that has a CSA electrical safety certification mark for use in concrete laboratories.

RCON™ : Bulk Electrical Resistivity Testing
Non-destructive laboratory device for measuring bulk electrical resistivity of concrete specimens

Test the Durability of Concrete

RCON™ is an advanced non-destructive laboratory tool for measuring the bulk electrical resistivity of concrete at various ages. The device is fast (measurement time is less than 5 seconds), accurate (utilizing a variable frequency method), and flexible (measurements can be taken with different settings for verification). No additional sample preparations are required before testing. RCON allows for continuous measurement of electrical resistivity over time, which can be used to monitor important durability parameters of concrete, such as; cracking, moisture transfer, and setting time in concrete specimens.

Surf™ : Surface Electrical Resistivity Testing
Laboratory device for measuring the surface electrical resistivity of concrete

Rapid, Easy, & Accurate Measurements


Surf is a laboratory device for testing the surface electrical resistivity of concrete based on the four-probe (Wenner-Array) technique. Surf. These measurements are used to estimate the resistance of chloride penetration in the concrete. This shows the qualitative relationship between the rapid chloride penetrability test (RCPT) and the surface electrical resistivity of concrete. This surface resistivity meter can also be used for durability-based quality control of concrete and for monitoring the service life design of a structure.
