be used in tightly confined areas. Besides, the choice of a transducer can also be
affected by the curvature of tested surface, since the establishment of ultrasonic
contact between a transducer and tested surface is of paramount importance while
making the measurements.
The choice of a proper transducer often becomes an issue of finding a
compromise between different characteristics. A need may arise to try different
transducers in order to find the one which would best suit a specific job.

Transducer connection
Choose a proper transducer for the required thickness range of products to be
tested. Plug the connecting cable "Transducer/Thickness gauge" in the connector on
the thickness gauge (Fig. 5).
The connecting cable "Transducer/Thickness gauge" is structurally included
into the transducer set.
4.4
Switching the thickness gauge ON
Switch the thickness gauge ON (by pressing
the battery is not exhausted (" " icon should not be flashing).
In case the batteries (or cells) are discharged, replace them with new ones (see
para 8.2) or charge the batteries using an external charging device (not included into
the thickness gauge delivery set).
When the battery charge is low, " " icon will start flashing in the upper left
corner of the display:
Note - When switched on, the thickness gauge is automatically placed in the
"Measurement" mode, saving all the settings, which were active before its prior
turning off.
