coil. The generated EMF (the function of thickness) goes to the controller and is converted into the
thickness value. The coating thickness shows on the display.
Measurement accuracy
The measurement accuracy depends on the right consideration of the physical properties of the test
object and its homogeneity, temperature, roughness, surface geometry, and other parameters. The error
is specified for each probe in the tab. 1.2.
Operating mode
The device has a specific operating mode for each probe, and two modes common for all probes:
single measurement, and measurement with averaging.

1.7 Measuring units, tools, and accessories

The performance of the device is assessed by checking the modes of its operation and checking the
possibility of measuring the thickness by the thickness blocks (reference blocks). The discrepancy
between the readings of the device should not exceed the permissible error (tab. 1.2). If a permissible
error is exceeded, the device should be calibrated under c. 2.3.8.
The adjustment and setting of the device in case of malfunction shall be performed by the
manufacturer.

1.8 Marking and sealing

The device has the sealing established by the manufacturer.
The symbol of the device with the trademark of the manufacturer is applied to the front panel of the
device. The serial number is printed on the back panel.

1.9 Packaging

The electronic unit and the probe are delivered in a package (case), excluding their damage during
transportation.
To avoid mechanical damage to the cable and connectors of the device, disconnect the probe from
the device before placing it in the packaging container.
