Screening Eagle Proceq Profometer PM8500

The PM8500 from Screening Eagle (formerly Proceq) sets new standards in bridge inspection and corrosion testing of reinforced concrete structures. Designed for engineers, building inspectors and infrastructure experts, this state-of-the-art system offers a precise, fast and digital solution for assessing the likelihood of corrosion – reliable, efficient and future-proof.

The PM8500 is a powerful corrosion measurement device based on the proven half-cell potential method. It detects corrosion risks in reinforcing steel at an early stage and enables informed decisions regarding the maintenance of critical structures – particularly in bridge inspection.

Your benefits at a glance:

• Early detection of corrosion damage
• Precise potential field measurement in real time
• Digital data storage and analysis
• Intuitive operation via mobile app

Complete system

The PM8500 offers a fully integrated system for professional applications:

• PM8500 high-performance sensor – Precise measurements even under demanding conditions
• Flexible electrode solutions – Rod, single-wheel and four-wheel electrodes for point and area measurements
• Profometer iOS app – User-friendly control and visualisation
• Screening Eagle Workspace – Cloud-based data backup and analysis platform

Thanks to the seamless connection between hardware and software, your corrosion testing becomes not only more efficient but also significantly more transparent.

The PM8500 sensor connects wirelessly to your iPad via Bluetooth. The Profometer app enables intuitive control and displays measurement data directly on site.

Highlights:

• Automatic synchronisation with the Screening Eagle Workspace cloud
• Secure access to measurement data – anytime, anywhere
• Support for Wi-Fi and mobile networks
• No data loss thanks to automatic saving

This is how modern bridge inspection becomes digital, mobile and efficient.

Versatile applications for every inspection requirement

The PM8500 is ideal for a variety of measurement scenarios:

• Point measurement with rod electrodes – for targeted analyses
• Area measurement with wheel electrodes – for large-scale investigations

Whether for bridges, multi-storey car parks or other concrete structures – this system delivers reliable results for every corrosion inspection.

The PM8500 utilises the proven half-cell potential method to analyse corrosion processes in concrete. As soon as the steel’s protective passive film is damaged by CO₂ or chlorides, measurable potential differences arise.

The integrated Cu/CuSO₄ reference electrode ensures stable and precise measurement values. Systematic recording of these potentials provides a clear picture of the corrosion condition within the structure.

With the PM8500, Screening Eagle offers an innovative all-in-one solution for professional bridge inspection and corrosion testing. The combination of precise measurement technology, intuitive software and cloud-based data processing makes this system an indispensable tool for anyone prioritising safety, efficiency and accuracy.
