OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Operation area condition: This gauge can measure all samples which are equal to or bigger than the
transducers surface area.
Curved surface condition: When materials have a curved surfaces like a boiler wall or tubing, the curvature
radius must be equal to or more than 10mm and the wall thickness must be equal to or more than 3mm.
Roughness condition: This gauge is applicable for a wide range of materials. In most cases the supplied
transducer makes very accurate readings. However if the roughness is too big due to rust etc. an error may
occur. In this case please try to minimise the roughness or select the 2.5MHz transducer. If the transducer is
worn-out, please contact your local distributor for a replacement transducer
Working temperature condition: Material and sound velocity will change along with temperature. In
normal measurement conditions environment temperature impact can be ignored. The transducer is made
of propylene material. Considering the protection of the transducer and its precision we recommend a
surface temperature of the work piece should not be over 60
o
C otherwise the transducer could be
damaged.
Operation temperature: 0 - 40

PREPARATIONS
1. Switching on the instrument
Connect the probe with the main unit, press ON/OFF to turn on the instrument. All display signs will light up for
0.5 sec on the LCD screen. Then it will show a value of 0.0mm and 5900 VEL and after that the last registered
sound velocity with selected memory unit. The instrument is now ready for use.
