14 MAINTENANCE
You own one of the finest underwater thickness gauges in the world. If looked after, it will last a
lifetime.
14.1 FAULTS
Your gauge is designed to give many years reliable service under normal operating and storage
conditions. The gauge does not contain any user-serviceable components. In the unlikely event of
a fault, the gauge should be returned to your local Elcometer NDT supplier or directly to Elcometer
NDT. The warranty will be invalidated if the instrument has been opened.
14.2 TRANSDUCER
The transducer will wear with repeated use. Transducer life depends on the number of
measurements taken and the manner in which readings are taken. To extend transducer life,
always set the transducer down so that it is perpendicular to the panel surface. Dragging the
transducer along the surface will reduce the life of the transducer. Replacement transducers are
available from your local Elcometer NDT supplier or directly from Elcometer NDT.
