The N88-9B-D Digital Pipe Pit Gauge Kit includes Bridging Pit Gauge Main Blade, carrying case, digital indicator, #1 and #2 Contact Points, fasteners and allen key and operator instructions.
As Western’s Pit Gauge Product Series gains popularity, we are able to address various industry needs. When Pipeline Inspectors would like to purchase our Digital Bridging Pit Gauge System, but their budget won’t permit the higher cost, the answer is our Digital Pipe Pit Gauge, which is simply the Main Blade and Digital Indicator of our Digital Bridging Pit Gauge System. In the future, as the budget permits, the inspector can purchase the rest of the parts, and assemble a full Bridging Pit Gauge, however with the Digital Pipe Pit Gauge, an inspector can evaluate 90% of all the Pitting he encounters. The Digital Pipe Pit Gauge evolved from specific customer requests!
The Digital Pipe Pit Gauge Kit comes in its custom made carrying case, with the Gauge (Digital Indicator and Blade), as well as the Accessories (Allan Key, Spare #1 Contact Point, Spare Battery, and Operator Manual). In this view, the Digital Indicator installed in the Centre Receptacle of the Blade for those who prefer this centralized mounting configuration.
The view below is of the Digital Pipe Pit Gauge with the Digital Indicator installed in the End Receptacle. The Blade is equipped with a Cut Away below the End Receptacle, to allow the inspector to check corrosion right up to a weld, riser, or re-pad. Here the Gauge is measuring a 0.100” (2.4mm) nominal hole on Western’s standard N88-FBH Calibration Block.
None of Western’s other Reaching Pit Gauges (see Weld Undercut Measurement supplement) offer this Dual Receptacle feature. If large areas of Weight-Loss Corrosion are not a problem on your pipeline system, and you don’t require the features of a Bridge Type Unit, then ask about our full featured Pipeline Inspectors Kit. The Pipeline Inspectors Kit is equipped with 3 different Blades to provide features not available with our Pipe Pit Gauge.
