Personalised Welcome Screen; Storage And Transit; Maintenance - Elcometer 456 Operating Instructions Manual

Care must be taken to ensure that the
calibration conditions are not affected by
changes in the zinc or aluminium coating
thickness. This can be determined by checking
the zero over an area of the galvanised or
metal-coated steel. Metal coatings on steel
above 50 µm (2 mil/thou) should be consistent
enough to obtain a stable zero on the layer of
metal.

11 STORAGE AND TRANSIT

This gauge incorporates a Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD). If the display is heated
above 50°C (120°F) it may be damaged.
This can happen if the gauge is left in a
car parked in strong sunlight.
Always store the gauge in its carrying pouch when
it is not being used.
Remove the batteries from the gauge and store
them separately if the gauge is to remain unused for
a long period of time. This will prevent damage to
the gauge in the event of malfunction of the
batteries.
