For accurate measurement of wall thicknesses, the device uses ultrasonic technology. Different materials need different ultrasonic velocities. The PCE-TG1XX has been adjusted for five different sound velocities and for various materials at the factory. The sound velocity is freely adjustable and can thus be adapted to different materials.

Manual Sound velocities for different materials The following chart lists the sound velocities of some materials. They are to be seen as a reference. The actual sound velocities of these materials can deviate due to material composition, porosity and temperature. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the exact sound velocity by testing a piece of the material in question by means of the meter.
Manual Surface accuracy The highest accuracy is achieved when the surface to be tested as well as the counterface (back wall) are even. When the surface to be tested is coarse, the lowest thickness that can be measured increases because the sound running time rises with the increasing thickness of the coupling layer. On the other hand, the roughness of the counterface causes strong dispersions of the reflected echo und thus an inaccurate indication of the thickness measurement.
Manual Maintenance and cleaning Maintenance Warning: To prevent measuring errors and resulting injuries, please replace the batteries as soon as the battery symbol appears. If the battery voltage is insufficient, a battery symbol is indicated in the display. In this case, replace the two AA batteries immediately to avoid measuring errors and resulting hazards.
