Introduction
The 72DL PLUS thickness gauge is a portable nondestructive testing (NDT)
instrument designed primarily for the precise and reliable measurement of material
thickness on a wide range of materials.
The 72DL PLUS gauge offers advanced conventional ultrasonic performance
featuring a large dynamic range and superior measurement resolution. The 17.78 cm
(7 inch), full color liquid-crystal display touch screen provides a resolution of 800 ×
480 pixels with transflective technology and a wide viewing angle for high visibility.
The touch screen can simultaneously display the measurement of up to 6 layers.
The 72DL PLUS gauge uses a single element transducer for a variety of applications.
Olympus offers a standard frequency option, a high-frequency option, and a
multilayer software option to solve diverse applications based on a wide range of
material thicknesses. The software user interface (UI) provides an intuitive way to
access the full functionality of the instrument. The 72DL PLUS gauge can be used
both indoors and outdoors, and by placing on a work surface or by using a four-point
chest harness.
Before you operate the 72DL PLUS gauge, Olympus recommends that you have a
thorough understanding of the principles and limitations of ultrasonic nondestructive
testing and that you seek adequate training. Olympus assumes no responsibility for
incorrect operational procedure or misinterpretation of test results.
Although the 72DL PLUS gauge continuously self-calibrates, you must be aware of
the regulatory requirements. Olympus offers calibration and documentation services.
