1. General Information
   The coating thickness gauges work either on the magnetic induction
principle or on the eddy current principle, depending on the type
of probe used. You can select the type of probe via MENU system,
or it will work automatically.

Features
• Measured Coatings: Non-magnetic coatings (e.g. paint, zinc)on steel;
• Insulating coatings(e.g. paint, anodizing coatings)on no-ferrous metals
• Operating with MENU easily
• Memory for 2500 readings
• Delete single readings and all group readings easily
• Error indication
• Data transferred to PC via Bluetooth for analysis
• Disable Auto-Power-off function via MENU setting

1-1. Application
• This compact and handy gauge is designed for non-destructive, fast
and precise coating thickness measurements. The principal applications
lie in the field of corrosion protection. It is ideal for manufacturers
and their customers, for offices and specialist advisers, for paint shops
and electroplaters, for the chemical, automobile, shipbuilding and
aircraft industries and for light and heavy engineering.
• The coating thickness gauge is suitable for laboratory, workshop
and outdoor use.
• The probe can work on both principles, magnetic induction and on
the eddy current principle. One probe only is required for coating
measurement both on ferrous and non-ferrous metal substrates.It is
adaptable to specific tasks: i.e. they can be used on special geometries
or on materials with special properties.

1-2. Description of the Gauge
• For measurement on steel substrates, the gauge works on the magnetic
induction principle, for measurement on non-ferrous metal substrates,
it works on the eddy current principle.
• Measured values and user information are shown on LCD. The display
with backlight ensures easy reading of screen data in dark conditions.

1-3. Supply Schedule
   Gauge with two AAA 1.5V batteries, plastics carrying case, operating
instructions (English), steel and aluminum substrate, and standard flake
for calibration.

 1-4. Probe
   The Probe systems are spring-mounted in the probe sleeve. This
ensures safe and stable positioning of the probe and constant contact
pressure.
   A V-groove in the sleeve of the probes facilitates reliable readings
on small cylindrical parts. The hemispherical tip of the probe is made
of hard and durable material. Hold the probe by the spring mounted
sleeve and put on measuring object.
