Product information

Elcometer 266 DC Holiday Detector – reliably locate flaws in coatings

Pinholes, cracks, inclusions and thin spots are the most common cause of early corrosion under coatings. The Elcometer 266 finds them with DC high voltage: the probe is passed over the coating, at a flaw a spark jumps to the earthed substrate and the gauge signals the spot visually and audibly.

Important: The base unit is supplied without probe handle. Choose the probe handle to suit the test voltage: DC5 (up to 5 kV), DC15 (up to 15 kV) or DC30 (up to 30 kV).

Your benefits

  • Automatic voltage selection: enter coating thickness and standard – the gauge sets the test voltage
  • Current limiting: protects user and coating
  • Safety handle: high voltage only while the handle is held
  • Built-in voltmeter: closed-loop control, no second meter needed
  • Rugged: impact-resistant ABS housing, waterproof to IP65, lithium-ion battery
