Page 12: Calibration
= 34.9 ma CALIBRATION setting = 34.0 ma Use steps 2-7 in "Daily Checklist" to set cell current to the calibration setting and the Kocour 6000 is re-calibrated. The calibration should be verified by re-testing the standard. PROGRAM MODULE DE-PLATING CURRENTS All currents listed are in DC milliamps. -
Page 13: Kocour Thickness Standards
Choose your standards from the "Stock Standards" list. These standards are adequate * These standards are made to order, due to the to calibrate the Kocour 6000 for most common formation of a copper-tin inter-metallic layer that plating thickness ranges. If the coating you are interferes with the calibration. -
