1 Description of the system
Measurement units of the micro-
gloss family can be used to
determine the gloss level of paint
coatings, plastics, ceramics and
metal surfaces.
Light is directed at the surface of
the sample at a defined angle and
the reflected light is measured
photoelectrically (reflectometer).
Depending on the typical gloss
level of the test object,
reflectometers that direct light onto
the surface at different angles
(geometry) can be used.
Measurement units are equipped
with standard geometries of 20°,
60° or 85°. All three of these
geometries are integrated into the
micro-TRI-gloss. Functions
described in this manual in terms of
geometry selection are only
available with the three angle
device.
In addition to measuring individual
gloss values, it is also possible to
record, save and statistically
evaluate series of measurements
consisting of up to 999 values.
The operate button and scroll
wheel are used to control the
system. System operation is
supported by display messages
(autodiagnosis and error
messages). You can select
German, English, French, Spanish,
Italian or Japanese (Katakana) as
the display language.
The measurement unit conforms to
the standards DIN 67530, ISO
2813, ASTM D 523 and BS 3900
Part D 5.
In addition, it was tested by the
“Bundesanstalt für Material-
forschung und -prüfung (BAM)”
(German Federal Institute for Mate-
rials Research and Testing) and
found to be properly categorized
and to meet requirements as set by
DIN 67530.

Safety instructions 2
If you use the unit properly, there are no hazards to fear – none of a
mechanical nature and none caused by electrical shock.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for damages caused by
failure to observe the safety and general instructions.
Please use only accessories that are available for the unit.
Improper use of accessories will render the warranty null and void.
If there is reason to believe that the unit can longer be operated
without presenting a hazard, it should be taken out of operation
and prevented from being turned on unintentionally. Operation
without presenting a hazard is no longer possible if the unit shows
visible signs of damage or if it is no longer working.
Do not perform any repairs on the unit, neither mechanical nor
electrical yourself. The unit must be opened by trained
professionals only. Please contact our customer service
department in such cases. They will be happy to assist you as
quickly as possible.

2 Safety instructions
Only instruments complying with the requirements for safety extra
low voltage may be connected to the RS 232 interface.
In case an external power supply is used, please pay attention that
the nominal voltage of the power supply (see identification plate on
the power supply) corresponds to the mains voltage of the mains
socket.
Your instrument is cutt off from power supply by
a) taking out the battery or
b) in case of external power supply by pulling the power supply out
of the mains socket.
Please take care that the power supply is accessible at any time.
In case you intend not to use the instrument for a longer period of
time, take out the battery in order to avoid that the battery leaks
inside the instrument and thus causes damage.

General Information 3
• The measurement unit consists of sensitive optical and
electronic precision parts. Provent it from being dropped or bumped
or jostled!
• Do not hold the unit by the measurement aperture. You should
not allow any foreign objects to get into this opening.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight for extended periods of
time. Do not store it in a hot or dusty environment. The case that
comes with the unit offers the best protection when the unit is being
stored.
• Avoid prolonged high relative humidity and do not allow water
to form from condensation (see Technical data).
• Protect the measuring unit from moisture, chemicals and
corrosive vapors.
• The holder and the unit housing are resistant to many solvents.
However, we cannot guarantee resistance to all chemicals. You
should therefore use a soft, moist cloth for cleaning. For clean
excessive dirt and dust, use ethanol or cleaning alcohol. Do not
use any acetone!
• Please note that batteries are special refuse and shall not be
disposed of together with household refuse. Pay attention to the
producers instruction or how to dispse of the battery.

4 Commissioning and power supply
Before putting the unit in
operating, read the operating
instructions and pay attention to
operation the safety instructions
and general instructions in Section
2. Unpack the device and check to
make certain all pieces have been
included with delivery (for scope of
delivery, see Section 21).
a) Power supply
battery - operated
The battery must be placed in the
measuring unit for operation
service. The device runs on one
AA 1.5-V alkaline battery.
Use only alkaline batteries as
the primary battery type Mignon
AA or Mignon LR6!
Depending on the exact brand, the
capacity of each battery is
sufficient for about 10,000
measurements. When the battery
voltage falls below the required
minimum voltage in the course of
operation, the following message
appears on the display
Battery low!
To ensure that the unit is always
ready for operation, it is
recommended to have a spare
battery handy, especially when
performing measurements in the
field.
Changing the battery
To insert or change the battery
open the battery compartment.
The easiest way to do this is by
turning the cover with a coin one-
eighth of a rotation to the left. Turn
the device back around and allow
the old battery and the battery
compartment cover to slide into
your hand.
Insert the new battery with the po-
sitive (top) end first into the battery
compartment and set the battery
compartment cover in place again.
Lock the cover by turning it one-
eighth of a rotation to the right.
