The PS 1000 X-Scan uses ground penetrating radar to detect what’s inside concrete walls and slabs-so you can avoid hitting rebar, conduit, or post-tensioning wire while drilling, cutting, or coring holes. It is available in multiple configurations and kits with prices starting at $18k. That’s not a typo; the tool is that expensive. The average contractor is never going to buy one of these things, but commercial and industrial contractors might, because for them, $18k could be significantly less than the cost of an injury, delay, or damage to a concrete structure.
