Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a PCE-TG1XX from PCE Instruments.
This instrument is very easy to use and can measure the material thickness of metals, glass and
homogeneous plastics within seconds. 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. The ultrasonic probe is equipped with a
measuring head which is fitted into a black spring washer. The round sections allow measurement on
even, uneven or round material surfaces. For determining the material thickness in narrow sections, you
can unscrew the adaptor head for a short period of time, so that only the sensor head itself is applied
(diameter = 10 mm). The device is calibrated when supplied to you.
