Positector 6000 Probes; Factory Calibration - DeFelsko PosiTector 6000 Instruction Manual

Theory of Operation
The PosiTector 6000 probes calculate coating thickness
measurements using the magnetic principle, eddy current principle
or a combination of both principles.
F probes use the magnetic principle to measure the thickness of
non-magnetic coatings on ferrous metals.
N probes use the eddy current principle to measure the thickness
of non-conductive coatings on non-ferrous metals.
FN probes combine the full abilities of both the "F" and "N" probes.
FN probes first attempt a measurement using the magnetic
principle and will display a reading with the letter "F" if the coating
is non-magnetic over steel. If the coating is non-conductive over
non-ferrous metal, then the probe will automatically attempt a
measurement using the eddy current principle and display a
reading with the letter "N"(see also N Lock - pg 28).
PosiTector 6000 coating thickness probes "sense" when they are
near metal and immediately attempt a measurement followed by
another every 2 seconds. They stop when removed from the
vicinity of metal and power-down after a few minutes of no activity.

Protective Cap
PosiTector 6000 probes are shipped with a protective plastic cap.
Remove this cap prior to use. Replace it when the instrument is
not in use to protect the probe.

Factory Calibration

Every PosiTector 6000 probe is factory calibrated and includes a
Certificate of Calibration. This factory calibration information is
permanently stored within the probe and cannot be overwritten by
the user.
