mmx-7

The MMX-7 has all the features of the MX and MMX gauges, with some additional features and advantages.

  • Selectable Large Digits and B-Scan display options.
  • An internal data logger, that stores a total of 12,000 readings and waveforms, 64 user custom definable setups, selectable transducer table for improved linearity, thru paint mode with the single press of a button, multiple calibrations and material selections options and selectable low, medium or high gain options.
  • This is all nicely packaged in a very mini portable aluminum extrusion for extra durability and portability.
  • The MVX-PVX view or Java-based PC software, make the thing a complete kit and then some, with a 2 year limited warranty.
