    5. Maintenance 5.1 Calibration Due to mechanical wear in use, changes in the test environment, with a different calibration of substrate material will be to the gauge to bring a certain error, appropriate calibration can improve its accuracy of measurement. The gauge is designed with three levels of calibration methods, zero-calibration one-point calibration and two-point...

It is about 0.5mm. 3 Roughness Measurements are influenced by the surface topography of the basis metal and coating.

    5.3 Maintenance 1 Protect the gauge from dirt, dust, humidity, chemicals and corrosive vapours. And do not let the gauge drop! 2 After use, please store the gauge in the protective case. 3 Avoid direct, strong sunlight and temperature-shocks as these can have a negative influence on the measurement result.
