11 MAINTENANCE

The Models CG30/CG50/CG50DL are designed to give many years reliable service under normal
operating and storage conditions.
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.
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. Contact details can be found at
