FEATURES
* It meets the standards of both ISO2178 and
ISO-2360 as well as DIN, ASTM and BS.
Suitable for the laboratory and for use in
harsh field conditions.
* The F probes measure the thickness of non-
magnetic materials (e.g. paint, plastic,
porcelain enamel, copper, zinc, aluminium,
chrome etc.) on magnetic materials (e.g.
iron, nickle etc.) . 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 probes measure the thickness of
non-magnetic coatings on non-magnetic
metals. It is used on anodizing, varnish,
paint, enamel, plastic coatings, powder,
etc. applied to aluminum, brass, non-
magnetic stainless steel, etc.
* Automatic substrate recognition.
* Manual or automatic shut down.
* Two measurement mode: Single and Continuous
* Wide measuring range and high resolution.
* Metric/English conversion.
* Digital display
gives exact reading with
no
guessing or errors.
* Can communicate with PC computer for
statistics and printing by the optional cable
and
the software for RS232C interface .

power and '0' shows up on the Display (3-2).
The gauge will restore the state of last
operation itself , with a symbol 'Fe' or 'NFe'
indicating on Display. The gauge enters the
auto mode which can automatically recognize
the substrate itself.
4.2 Place the probe (3-1) on a coating layer to be
measured. The reading on the Display is the
thickness of the coating layer.
4.3 To take the next measurement, just lift the
probe (3-1) to more than 1 centimeter and then
repeat the step 4.2.
4.4 If you suspect the accuracy of measurement,
you should calibrate before taking the
measurements. For the calibration procedures,
please refer to the calibration part 5.
4.5 The gauge can be switched off by pressing
the Power key (3-3). On the other side, the
gauge will power itself off about 50 seconds
after the last operation.
4.6 To change the measurement unit 'um' or 'mil'
by Depressing the Zero/Power key and not
releasing it till 'UNIT' on the Display. And
the unit changes after releasing the power key.
It takes about 6 seconds from starting
