4 Measuring Procedure
4.1 The Power- key 3-6 has to be pressed to turn on the power. “0” appears on the
display 3-2.
Note:
The instrument will auto- calibrate, as soon as switched on.
Please pay attention to the sensor. During the initial calibration, the sensor should be
located neither in direct surroundings of the base plate nor other magnetic materials.
4.2 The sensor has to be located onto the coating to be measured.
The coating thickness will now be displayed.
4.3 To perform the next measurement, the sensor has to be lifted for more than 1cm
off the base material and step 4.2 has to be repeated.
4.4 In case of inaccuracies to the measurement result, it is recommended to
calibrate the instrument before taking measurements, as described in chapter 6.
4.5 The instrument can be switched off by the Power- on/ Power- off key 3-6. The
gauge switches off automatically 2 minutes after the last key- operation.
5 Offset-Accur
With this instrument, you have got the possibility to improve the measurement result
essentially by using the
OFFSET-
Accur function. Therefore, it is necessary to cali-
brate the gauge with a reference coating in the typically measured range. This kind of
fine adjustment can be also done with the calibration foils, included in delivery. Ide-
ally, this adjustment should be done on the base material which is actually used for
the real measurement instead on the base plate, included in delivery.
5.1 The result of the initially measurement is still shown on the display (as performed
in 4.2).
5.2. The reading on the display can be corrected by pressing the Plus- key or the Mi-
nus- key. During this operation, the sensor has to be removed from the base plate or
the part going to be measured.
6 Calibration (Adjustment)
6.1 Zero calibration for „Fe“ and „NFe“ should be done separately. If you take the iron
base plate, you will have to insert the F-sensor and „Fe“will be displayed. Or you take
the base plate of aluminium; then you will have to insert the FN-sensor and "NFe"“will
be displayed.
