The PM8500 is a corrosion meter, but to correctly assess the measured corrosion values it is important to know the concrete thickness because concrete acts as insulation. Assuming the same corrosion and only 20mm concrete thickness, the PM8500 shows very negative values, e.g. -500 mV, so very strong corrosion. With a concrete thickness of e.g. 60mm will have the same corrosion with e.g. only -150 mV is shown and it is assumed that there is almost no corrosion, which is wrong.
