Power-Up / Power-Down - DeFelsko PosiTector 200 Instruction Manual

The PosiTector 200 is a hand-held Coating
Thickness Gage that uses a non-destructive
ultrasonic principle to measure coating thickness on
a wide variety of substrates.
The PosiTector 200 probe emits a high frequency
sound pulse that travels into the coating via a
coupling gel and reflects from ANY surface that is
different in density. Coating thickness readings are
obtained by measuring the time taken for the
ultrasonic signal to propagate from the probe to the
coating/substrate interface and back. The travel time
is divided by two and multiplied by the velocity of
sound in the coating to obtain the thickness of the
coating.

down after approximately 3 minutes of no activity. All
settings are retained.
