Considerations in design of a direct-reading corrosion meter using temperature-compensated electrical resistance specimens or probes are described. A number of laboratory and field applications are discussed, with special emphasis on applications in the petroleum industry.

One of the principal advantages of the probe method is that it enables the operator to make measurements while corrosion is proceeding without interrupting the test and without making separate temperature corrections or calculations. The method cannot be used to measure pitting. 2.4.2
