    Safety ► Refer to the safety information before starting-up this gauge in order to avoid damage to property or personal injury. ► Keep this manual in a safe place to be able to refer to any necessary descrip- tions at a later date. Warnings and icons used ATTENTION Indicates a danger that can lead to damage or destruction of the product.
  • Page 8: Intended Use

    Intended use The gauge is intended solely for the determination of the  -ferrite content of auste- nitic and DUPLEX steel. Factors that influence the measurement accuracy, such as the geometry of the measured object, the thickness of a possible cladding layer or the shape of the permeable structure, must be taken into account individually by the user.
  • Page 9 via travel charger or PC is possible, but not recommended. The guaranteed confor- mity applies exclusively to battery operation! ATTENTION – Damage due to high temperature When exposed to sunshine, the areas behind glass windows (e.g. in a car) can easily reach temperatures in excess of +50 °C (+122 °F).
  • Page 10: Maintenance And Repairs

    ► Do not continue to use the battery if you notice any changes such as discoloration, deformation or damage to the outer casing. ► Replace the battery if it is not charged after the usual charging time. The usual charging time can be found in the technical data.
  • Page 11: Limitation Of Liability

    Limitation of liability The gauge manufacturer accepts no liability and responsibility for any kind of dam- age resulting from the use of the corrective diagrams and tables provided in the chapter "Parameters that influence the Delta-ferrite content measurement". The user uses the formular, corrective diagrams and tables at their own responsibility. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage of any kind caused by read-off er- rors and unsafe estimates.

  • Page 36: Connecting/Replacing Probe

    Connecting/replacing probe Every probe has its own identifier, consisting of a probe code (e.g. D-FN) and the se- rial number. Each time a batch (measuring application, application) is created, the probe identifier is automatically saved as well. This ensures that for the open batch, a measurement can be performed only using the probe that has the same identifier as the one saved in the open batch.

  • Page 38: Replacing The Probe - Connecting A Different Probe

    Replacing the probe – connecting a different probe You can replace a defective probe with a new probe of the same type or connect a different probe type to the one previously used. ATTENTION – Data loss If a new probe is assigned to a batch, all previous measured readings of the batch will be lost since the measured readings previously stored in the batch were measured using a different probe and a different calibration.

The menu page displays the probe identifiers of the two probes: the old one previously assigned to the batch, and the connected new probe. 5. Assign the connected probe to the batch: OK. A message tells you that a calibration still needs to be assigned to the open batch.
  • Page 40: Settings For Measurement

    Settings for measurement In order to measure, you need to create and open a batch (measuring file). Settings, such as those for the measurement procedure are saved in the batch, e.g. specifica- tion limit monitoring and grouping of measured readings in measurement blocks during the measurement and in measuring mode.

  • Page 44: Selecting Measuring Mode

    Selecting measuring mode You can specify how the measured readings are to be acquired and displayed. Single Readings (default mode) Measured reading acquisition after the probe is placed on the surface. The measured readings are automatically saved in the batch (measurement file), provided the Save Readings function is activated.
  • Page 45 parameter (time interval) set in Scan measuring mode, a measured reading is acquired every x seconds as the surface is being scanned. After n measured readings, automatic measured reading acquisition stops. The measurement cy- cle is repeated when the probe is applied again. The setting for the number of measured readings per block in the Block Size is used as the number of mea- sured readings.
  • Page 46: Save Measured Readings On/Off

    Save measured readings on/off You can specify whether the measured readings are automatically saved in the open batch. Function activated (default mode) The measured reading is automatically saved in the open batch with every measured reading acquisition. Function deactivated The measured readings are automatically saved in the open batch only temporarily. When a different batch is called or the gauge is switched off, the measured readings are lost.
  • Page 47: Assigning A Different Calibration To The Opened Batch

    You can choose between automatic (dynamic) and manual (static) acquisition of the air reference value: Dynamic (default mode) Dynamic, automatic acquisition of the air value each time the probe is lifted off the surface. Static Static, no automatic acquisition of the air value each time the probe is lifted off the surface.

    Measure Measurement influencing factors do not significantly affect the FERITSCOPE® DMP30. Ferrite content measurements can be carried out regardless of the sub- strate material properties starting at a plating thickness of 3 mm (0.12 "). Due to the used magnetic induction measuring method, which captures all ferromagnetic com- ponents in the same manner, the measurements are always stated in -ferrite.
