Functions - sauter TE SERIES Instruction Manual

This thickness gauge is small, lightweight and handy. Although its components are
complex and advanced, it is convenient and easy to use.
Its durability allows to use it for many years, provided all the guidelines in this User
Manual are complied with strictly.
This is why you should always have it within arm's reach!
Please note: Before first use of the new measuring instrument it is recom-
mended to adjust it as described in chapter 5. Thanks to this, you will ensure
higher quality of measurements right from the start.

1 Functions

» This device meets the requirements of ISO 2178, ISO 2361 as well as DIN, ASTM
and BS. Consequently, it can be used both in laboratories and in difficult environmen-
tal outdoor conditions.
» F-type measuring probe is used to measure the thickness of non-magnetic layers,
e.g. paint, plastic, enamelled porcelain, copper, zinc, aluminium, chrome, lacquer etc.
Such layers should be placed on magnetic metals, e.g. steel, iron, nickel etc. This
measurement method is frequently used to measure thickness of galvanised coat-
ings, lacquer coatings, enamelled porcelain coatings, phosphate coatings, copper
and aluminium plates, alloys etc.
» N-type measuring probe is used to measure non-magnetic and insulation layers on
non-magnetic metals.
It is used to measure thickness of anodized, lacquer, glazed coatings, paints, enam-
els, plastic coatings, powder coatings etc. They should be placed on non-magnetic
substrate materials, e.g. aluminium, steel sheet, non-magnetic stainless steel etc.
» Automatic sensing of the substrate material.
» Manual or automatic switch-off to save batteries.
» Two measurement modes: individual and continuous.
» Conversion from metric to imperial units.
» Large measurement range and high resolution.
» Backlit display for the accurate readout.
» Can be connected to the PC for data transmission via RS-232 interface (for statisti-
cal purposes). The cord and software available as accessories (ATC-01).
