Introduction
1.1 General description
This coating thickness gauge is small, light and handy. Although it has complex and
advanced equipment, it is convenient and easy to use.
Its robustness allows it to be used for many years, provided that all instructions in this
manual are carefully followed.
Therefore please keep them always within reach!
Note: It is strongly recommended to adjust the new meter before first use, as
described in chapter 6. This will result in a higher measurement accuracy from
the beginning.

Functions
"This device complies with the ISO- Norm 2360 as well as the DIN-Norm, ASTM and
BS. This means that it can be used both under laboratory conditions and under rough
environmental conditions "in the field".
"The F" probe measures the thickness of non-magnetic layers, e.g. paint, plastic,
enamelled porcelain, copper, zinc, aluminium, chrome, lacquer layers etc.
These layers should be on magnetic materials such as steel, iron, nickel, etc. This
probe is often used to measure the thickness of galvanized layers, lacquer layers,
enamelled porcelain layers, phosphorescent layers, copper plates, aluminium plates,
alloys, paper, etc.
"The N- probe measures the thickness of non-magnetic layers on non-magnetic
metals.
It is used to measure anodizations, lacquer layers, glazes, colours, enamel, plastic
layers, powder coating etc. These should be on non-magnetic substrates such as
aluminium, sheet metal, non-magnetic stainless steel and others.
"The FN measuring probe is a combination of both probes and is therefore defined for
both areas of application
"Automatic recognition of the carrier material
"Manual or automatic switch-off to conserve battery power.
"Metric/ imperic conversion of the measured values of µm/mil
"Two measuring modes: - single and continuous (S= single/ C= continuous)
"Wide measuring range and high resolution
" Can be connected to a PC for data transfer via RS 232 interface
Cable and software are available as optional accessories (ATC-01).
