Connected Field v1.6 is now available!

This release’s focus is on the ability to capture Ultra-Thickness (UT) readings using our mobile application. We wanted to improve the collection process and try to eliminate common errors that occur. We added key validations when entering the Essential Variables to prevent them from producing incorrect readings. We remind you to properly calibrate your meter for high temperature scenarios and verify you are using the correct step wedge for the pipe size.

During the UT process, we compare each reading to the T-Min value and/or previous reading, if available. You’ll get instant feedback whether the current reading increased from the last reading or if the value is within the configured alert values. The goal of this version is to guide you along the process while reducing errors and increasing efficiency.

1.      Ultra-Thickness (UT) Readings. This feature includes:

• Ability to Import previous reading history
