is

 

packed

 

with

 

useful

 

features

 

allowing

 

users

 

to

 

be

 

confident

 

of

 

the

values

 

on

 

the

 

most

 

critical

 

of

 

applications.

 

This

 

multi

This

 

dynamic

 

sonic

 

gauge

 

is

 

designed

 

to

 

measure

 

the

 

thickness

 

of

 

metallic

 

and

 

non

metallic

 

materials

 

in

 

critical

 

situations

 

that

 

ordinary

 

thickness

 

gauges

 

couldn’t

 

do.

   

The

 

UTG

4000

 

will

 

accurately

 

display

 

readings

 

in

 

either

 

inch

 

or

 

millimeter

 

after

 

a

 

simple

 

calibration

 

to

 

a

The UTG‐4000 is a multi‐functional thickness gauge that allows the user tremendous control over the functionality and performance 
of this instrument. Although this provides the user with control and versatility for numerous applications, it also requires that the 
user be familiar with the function, operation and waveform interpretation of the instrument as well. 
It is recommended that the user spend a sufficient amount of time working with this instrument prior to field use. 
Responsibility for proper use rests solely with the user of this instrument.
