PCE-CT 30 thickness gauge
to
measure coatings on steel or
non-ferrous metals
|
|
The PCE-CT 30
thickness gauge measures coating
thickness on steel and non-ferrous
metals without damaging the surface.
The menu and adjustment for new
parameters can convert the PCE-CT 30
thickness gauge into an
indispensable device for
checks during production, in workshops
as well as the in quality control. The ergonomical
shape of the thickness gauge and its
integrated sensor make this
device easy to
use to ensure quick and accurate
readings. It has been designed for
measuring non-magnetic coatings such
as lacquer, plastic, copper, chrome,
zinc and enamel on steel and iron,
as well as insulating coatings such
as lacquer, plastic, enamel, paper,
glass and rubber on copper,
aluminium, brass, stainless steel
and anodised aluminium. This

Here is the PCE-CT taking a
measurement. |
|
The
thickness gauge is used predominantly
in
the automotive industry.
Everyone who has bought
a car that, apparently, has never been involved
in an accident, knows the
problem of discovering that
an area shows major damages.
It is
not necessary to be an expert in
materials, but it would be helpful to
have the ability to determine if a car
has been damaged and then repaired. The PCE-CT 30
thickness gauge is the solution for
an easy determination of the condition of body
work on a car. Simple select the type of
base material, either steel or aluminium,
place the device on the area that you
would like to measure and the reading will
tell you if the coating of paint is
uniform and to the correct thickness
that is applied originally by the manufacturer.
In cases where body filler were used, the coating on the metal will be
more than one millimeter. The PCE-CT 30
thickness gauge as a range of 0 to 3500 µm (3.5mm).
In cases where abnormal thickness are
determined, it would be time to question
the condition of the car and to
act with caution.
The thickness gauge can also be used in
every industry with the
need to measure the thickness of
coatings on ferrous or non-ferrous
materials. An example of this is
galvanizing. To ensure that the
thickness gauge is shows the correct
reading, you will find a calibration standard
included with the device. An optional
ISO calibration can be ordered to ensure
that the readings meet ISO standards. The
certificate includes the measurement
values and the serial number of the
device. There is also a testing plate
that will help to determine
if a
recalibration is required. |
