  • Page 3: Introductions

    1. Introductions This compact gauge can be used for non-destructive coating thickness measurement of non-magnetic coatings, e.g. paint, enamel, chrome on steel, and insulating coatings, e.g. paint and anodizing coatings on non-ferrous metals. 1.1 Features 128*128 dot matrix LCD display, standard menu operations; Two measure mode: single and continuous;...
  • Page 4: Principle Of Measurement

    1.3 Principle of Measurement The coating thickness gauge work either on the magnetic induction principle or on the eddy current principle, depending on the type of probe used. This gauge has internal F probe and N probe. F probe work on magnetic induction principle and should be used for non-magnetic coatings such as aluminium, chrome, copper, zinc, paint and varnish,enamel, rubber etc., on an iron or steel substrate;...

    2. Use the Gauge If you use the gauge for the first time, please read the chapter 3(factors of affecting measurement accuracy). 2.1 Replacing the Battery Place the gauge upside down on a suitable surface, remove the screws from the battery compartment with a crosstip screwdriver, raise the lid of the compartment, remove battery, insert new battery according to the positive and negative poles and close the lid and fasten with screws.

    2.4 Measure Mode Single measure mode - Place the probe on sample vertically and rapidly, and after one beep, raise it rapidly. Continuous measure mode - Place the probe on sample, and don’t raise the probe, the measurement will be done continuously in a certain cycle. 2.5 Group Mode Direct Group(DIR)-Be intended for quick occasional readings.

  • Page 14: Probe Mode

    2.7 Probe Mode There are three probe modes: AUTO, MAG and EDDY. In AUTO mode, the probe can automatically determine the type of substrate measured. In MAG mode, the probe can only measure on magnetic substrates. In EDDY mode, the probe can only measure on non-ferrous metal substrates. When a magnetic substrate detected, an “F”...

    immediately. The final reading derives from the statistical calculation and from the guaranteed tolerance levels of the gauge. T(coating thickness)=M(mean value)±S(standard deviation)±A(measuring accuracy). 3. Factors of Affecting Measurement Accuracy User needs to know the factors of affecting measurement accuracy before using the gauge. The factors are listed as below.
  • Page 19: Calibration

    The measured sample must correspond to the calibration sample in substrate material properties, curvature radius, or the more closely the measured sample matches the calibration sample, the more accurate the measuring. In addition, curvature radius should meet the minimum value as specified in chapter 1.6. The minimum substrate thickness and the minimum measuring areas as specified in chapter 1.6 should be taken into account.
  • Page 20: Zero Calibration

    4.1 Zero Calibration Tips: For P3 or P4, press and hold “DOWN Key” to start zero calibration, and press again to exit a. Press and hold “ZERO Key” until hearing “beep...beep beep...”. The LCD will flash “ZERO” symbol. b. Place the probe on uncoated sample and raise it after one beep. c.
  • Page 21: Shot-Blasted Surfaces

    4.3 Shot-blasted Surfaces The physical nature of shot-blasted surfaces results in coating thickness readings that are too high. The mean thickness over the peaks can be determined as follows. Method one: a. The gauge should be calibrated according to 4.2(one or more points calibration). Use a smooth calibration sample with the same curvature radius and the same substrate as the later measuring sample.
  • Page 22: Trouble Shooting

    The following errors can be remedied by system reset: -Illogical readings -Several of the keys don’t work Reset to factory settings(For P1, P2): 1. Power off the gauge. 2. Press and hold “ZERO Key” and then power on the gauge.
