1. Introductions
This compact gauge can be used for non-destructive coating thickness measurement of non-magnetic coatings,
e.g. paint, enamel, chrome on steel, and insulating coatings, e.g. paint and anodizing coatings on non-ferrous
metals.
1.1 Features
128*128 dot matrix LCD display, standard menu operations;
Two measure mode: single and continuous;
Two group mode:direct(DIR) and general(GEN), readings will be lost when power off in direct mode, and not be
lost in general mode. Readings can be stored for each group;
Zero point calibration and multi-point calibration(up to 4 points) for each group;
User can recall, delete specified readings, or delete group readings;
Statistics display: mean, minimum, maximum and standard deviation;
Three probe mode:auto, magnetic and eddy current;
User can set high or low limit alarm for each group;
Power off automatically;
USB interface to data transmission;
Low battery and error indication ;
1.2 Application
This gauge is designed for non-destructive, fast and precise coating thickness measurement. 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, ship building and
aircraft industries and for heavy engineering. It is suitable for laboratory, workshop and outdoor use.

1.3 Principle of Measurement
The coating thickness gauge work either on the magnetic induction principle or on the eddy current principle,
depending on the type of probe used. This gauge has internal F probe and N probe.
F probe work on magnetic induction principle and should be used for non-magnetic coatings such as aluminium,
chrome, copper, zinc, paint and varnish,enamel, rubber etc., on an iron or steel substrate; It is also suitable for
alloyed and hardened magnetic steel(however, not suitable for austenic steel).
N Probe work on the eddy current principle and should be used for insulating coatings e.g. paint, anodizing,
ceramics, etc., on all non-ferrous metals such as aluminium, copper, zinc die casting, brass etc. and on austenitic
stainless steels.

Note：
1. If a suspicious readings is measured, user can delete it through pressing the UP key once.
Note: 1. If displayed, the battery is OK. Or if displayed, the battery capacity is low, and measurement will
be not reliable, and you need to replace the battery.
2. The gauge will work in factory default settings for the first time, including single measure mode, AUTO probe
mode, direct group mode(DIR) etc..
3. When power on, if in direct group mode(DIR), the readings display area is empty, or if in general group mode
(GENn, n=1 to 4), it will display the last readings and statistics value measured before power off last time.
2. Use the Gauge
If you use the gauge for the first time, please read the chapter 3(factors of affecting measurement accuracy).
2.1 Replacing the Battery
Place the gauge upside down on a suitable surface, remove the screws from the battery compartment with a
crosstip screwdriver, raise the lid of the compartment, remove battery, insert new battery according to the
positive and negative poles and close the lid and fasten with screws.
2.2 Basic Measurement Step
Step 1. Prepare the sample to be measured.
Step 2. Press key to power on.
Step 3. Reference to the chapter 3 to decide whether need to calibrate the gauge.
Step 4. Start measuring. Place the probe on the sample vertically and rapidly, and after one beep(for single
measure mode), raise the probe rapidly. Readings will be display on LCD, meanwhile statistics value
are upgraded and displayed.
Step 5. Do next measurement according to step 4.
Step 6. Press to power off. If not any operations within 3 min., the gauge will power off automatically.
