Portable UCI Hardness Tester DELTA UCI-45

Description

DELTA UCI-45 Portable UCI Hardness Tester

The DELTA UCI-45 is a high-performance, portable UCI hardness tester designed for fast and reliable hardness testing of structural and carbon steels. Built for versatility and precision, it supports multiple hardness scales including Brinell (HB), Rockwell (HRC), Vickers (HV), Shore D, and custom user-defined scales, making it ideal for industrial, laboratory, and field applications.

Fast and Reliable Measurements

The innovative fast probe delivers results in less than a second, outperforming traditional testers that require prolonged stabilization.

Human Error Reduction

Minimizes operator influence to ensure consistent, reliable readings even under challenging conditions.

Key Features

Advanced UCI testing (Ultrasonic Contact Impedance, per ASTM A1038)
Compatible with multiple hardness scales: HRC, HB, HV, Shore D, Rm, and user-defined
Optimized for thin-walled and lightweight parts
Backlit monochrome display for low-light environments
Built-in statistical analysis and averaging functions
Compact, IP54-rated design for dust and moisture protection
Full measurement capability in any orientation
USB data output for seamless PC connectivity
Long-lasting operation with 2 AA batteries, auto shut-off, and battery monitoring

Reliable and Easy-to-Use

Engineered for express hardness testing on parts of any size or geometry, the DELTA UCI-45 uses the Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) method. It is perfectly suited for field inspections, gear testing, tooth flanks, roots, and other hard-to-reach surfaces. The lightweight device features manual operation and consists of a main unit and a UCI probe with a built-in cable.

Versatile Calibration & Materials Compatibility

The UCI-45 is pre-calibrated for low-alloy and unalloyed steels using standard scales (HRC, HB, HV) and provides tensile strength (Rm) measurements derived from the Brinell scale. It can also be quickly calibrated on-site for other materials, including high-alloy steels, aluminum, and titanium, as long as the Young’s modulus of the material is known.
