12 TECHNICAL DATA

12.1 Measurement speed
>60 readings per minute.
This rate is reduced to >40 readings per minute when
Infrared printer output is active - see "OUTPUT:" on
page 21.
When measuring
measurement speed must be reduced to prevent
overheating of the probe. The maximum measurement
speed of the High Temperature PINIP™ probe at 250°C
(480°F) is 4 readings per minute.
12.2 Minimum substrate thickness
Ferrous: 300 µm (12 mils)
Non-ferrous: 100 µm (4 mils)
Measurements can be taken on thinner substrates if
2-point calibration is carried out either side of the
required substrate thickness, however gauges will have
reduced range when adjusted for thin substrates.
