Spanish term or phrase: probetas con pérdida de peso
This is taken from a Mexican regulatory document:

Monitoreo de la corrosión interna
En caso de que exista la presencia de gas corrosivo en el Sistema de Transporte, se deben utilizar probetas con pérdida de peso u otro dispositivo adecuado para determinar la efectividad de las medidas adoptadas para minimizar la corrosión interna.

consumable probes
Explanation:
An electrical current is passed through the probes. As the probes themselves are corroded, there is a change in electrical resistance which is measured and converted into rate of corrrosion.
