This coating thickness gauge is small in size, light in weight and easy to carry. Al-
though it is complex and advanced, it is convenient to operate. Its ruggedness will
allow many years of use if all the instructions are followed carefully.
Please keep this instruction manual always within reach!
Annotation: It is strongly recommended to adjust the new instrument before
the first use, as described in paragraph 5. By doing this, you will achieve a
much better measurement result right from the start.
1 Features
»This instrument meets the standards of both, ISO 2178, ISO 2361 as well as DIN,
ASTM and BS. It is suitable for laboratory and for use in “harsh field” conditions.
»The F- sensor measures the thickness of nonmagnetic materials, e.g. paint, plastic,
porcelain enamel, copper, zinc, aluminium, chrome, lacquer layers etc. These layers
are located on magnetic metals e.g. steel, iron, nickel etc. It is often used to measure
the thickness of galvanizing layer, lacquer layer, porcelain enamel layer, phosphide
layer, copper tile, aluminium tile, some alloy tile, paper etc.
»The N- sensor measures the thickness of non-magnetic coatings on non-magnetic
metals. It is used on anodizing, varnish, paint, enamel, plastic coatings, powder etc.
It can be applied on non-magnetic materials like aluminium, brass, stainless steel etc.
»Automatically substrate (base) recognition.
»Manual or automatically Auto-Power off to conserve batteries
»metric /imperial conversion from µm / mil
»Two measurement modes: single and continuous
»Data transfer to PC possible by RS232 interface
Cable and software can be obtained as optional accessory.
2 Specifications
Display: 4 digits
Range: 0 to 1250 µm/ 0 to 50 mil (default)
Resolution: 0.1µm (0 to 99.9 µm)
1 µm (over 100 µm)
Accuracy:
- Standard: 3% of the measured value or ± 2.5 µm or 0.1mil
This is valid within a tolerance range of ± 100
μm around the individually measured
range, if a two-point calibration was performed within this tolerance range.
