Buckleys Ltd.
Buckleys (UVRAL) Ltd. was formed in 1926 by the Buckley brothers from Putney, London, to sell ultra-violet ray arc lamps (hence the name UVRAL), used in early photographic production. The Hoveman family took over Buckleys in 1942 and the company moved from its Putney base to Hythe (in the south east of England) in 1973. In June 2010 the company relocated to Shearway Business Park in Folkestone. Since the early 1960′s, Buckleys has specialised in the manufacture of test and inspection equipment.

Battery Boxes Testing Equipment
Battery boxes can be tested for faults by placing the box on a metal plate. By applying a test voltage to an electrode inside the box, the moulding can be checked thoroughly - particularly at the injection points - and any faults found. Defects will be identified by a spark passing from the electrode, through the defect itself, to earth (the conductive material placed outside the battery box.

Car Parks Testing Equipment
Leaks in car park waterproofing systems can be located by using our Wet Roof Pro' leak detector kit or one of our dry roof leak detector kits, such as the PD30R or PD40R.

Bridge Decking Testing Equipment
The testing process can detect blow holes, inclusions or thin areas in 'sprayed-type' membranes. Because the concrete contains a small amount of water, it is electrically conductive and a DC Pinhole Detector can be used to create a high voltage which is passed over the surface by the use of a brush electrode. An alarm will sound to identify any small defects which can be rectified so that the integrity of the coating can be verified.

Geomembranes Testing Equipment
Similar to roofing membranes, geomembranes can be tested using our Wet Roof Pro' leak detector kit or one of our dry roof leak detector kits, such as the PD30R or PD40R.

Fire Extinguishers Testing Equipment
The circular electrode brush passes easily through the neck of the extinguisher cylinder and then expands to make reliable contact with the lining. Faults are detected by the voltage jumping from the electrode to the earthed shell, causing an alarm to sound. Special electrodes are available specifically for this application.

Offshore Wind Farm Testing Equipment
Potential readings taken by a diver holding a BathyCorrometer in contact with submerged steel structures can be analysed by engineers to determine whether the cathodic protection systems are working effectively or whether remedial action is required.

Plastic Fabrications Testing Equipment
PD and PHD Pinhole/Holiday Detectors have an alarm circuit to alert the operator when a fault has been located and the required test voltage can be set on the unit's meter. Spark Testers provide an inexpensive means of testing but have no output voltage meter or audible alarm. However, they can test joints even if the backing is not connected.

product
Pipelines Testing Equipment
A high voltage holiday detector is a quick and effective means of locating defects and faults in pipeline coatings (either enamel or tar wrap). As manufacturers of high-voltage test equipment; we have created 'Pipeline Test Kits' which provide all the necessary equipment to test for such defects.

Valves Testing Equipment
A PD or PHD Pinhole Detector is ideal as it has an audible alarm which sounds when a fault is found. Additionally, the test voltage can be set accurately, which is particularly important when testing thin linings. A DCCT mains-powered porosity tester can be used if the process needs to be incorporated into a production line

Piers and Jetties Testing Equipment
The BathyCorrometer is a diver-held unit which will measure the corrosion potential at specific contact points. Although the readings are visible to the diver, a Surface Display Unit can be supplied to verify readings on board a ship or diving platform. If Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) are being used, the UCP1A contact probe or UCP1B proximity probe can be easily installed to carry out corrosion surveys. Simple surveys of marine structures can be carried out by the use of a Marine Survey Kit (see the case study on Dover Harbour Board).
