DeFelsko PosiTest LPD Low Voltage Pinhole Detector is used to locate discontinuities in coating systems, including pinholes, cracks, bubbles, or thin spots in cured coatings of up to 20 mils thick (500 µm). Porosity testing of thicker coatings is performed with a high-voltage tester, commonly referred to as holiday detector, porosity detector, spark tester, and sometimes a jeep tester.
Flaws in coating systems permit the intrusion of moisture or potentially corrosive substances that can degrade the substrate and cause early coatings failure. Detection of pinholes, cracks, bubbles, or weak spots enables the coatings contractor to take action to repair the coating before costly degradation or failures occur.
The PosiTest LPD Low Voltage Pinhole Detector can be used to detect holidays in coatings applied to any conductive substrate, including steel and concrete. Light-weight and easy to use, the PosiTest LPD is available in a Basic Kit with the standard rectangular sponge, or a Complete Kit that also includes the hardware for a variety of test applications, including flat surfaces, internal pipes or tubes, and a roller brush option.
