Key Features of the SAUTER HK-D

• External Impact Sensor (Type D): Designed for precise testing on large or hard-to-reach objects, ensuring stable and repeatable results.
• Superior Portability: Far more mobile than bench-top units or devices with built-in sensors. Ideal for in-field inspections.
• 360° Measurement Capability: Automatic impact direction compensation enables accurate testing in any orientation.
• Multi-Scale Readout: Displays results in Rockwell (A, B, C), Vickers (HV), Shore (HS), Leeb (HL), and Brinell (HB), with no manual conversions required.
• Advanced Internal Memory: Stores up to 600 data groups, each with up to 32 readings for automatic averaging.
• Real-Time Mini Statistics: Shows measurement value, average, impact direction, date, and time for each group.
• Auto Unit Conversion: Test values are instantly converted across all supported hardness scales.
• Programmable Tolerance Limits: Set upper and lower thresholds with audio-visual alerts for quick quality control.
• Backlit Matrix Display: Multi-functional screen displays all key info at a glance, even in low-light environments.
• Durable Metal Housing: Built with high-quality cast aluminium for harsh industrial use.
• Protective Carry Case: Comes in a rugged transport case for safety and convenience on the go.
