COATING THICKNESS GAUGE
USER GUIDE
Introductions:
The thickness gauge is used to measure the
thickness of the plated and coated sheet on metal, e.g.
paint/enamel/ chrome on steel, paint and anodizing
coating on aluminum/copper.
The gauge takes the precision integrated probe, and
uses principles of electro-magnetic induction and the
eddy current effect, which automatically detects the
attribute of substrates.
Application Field:
The Gauge is designed for non-destructively
measuring the thickness of coating and painting. It is
essential for material surface treatment and widely
used in manufacturing industry, metal-processing
industry, chemical industry, commodity inspection
area, and also able to work steadily in the laboratory,
workshop and outdoor.
Operating Principle:
The gauge adopts the principle of electromagnetic
induction and eddy current effect. It has F probe and
N probe.
F probe works on the magnetic induction principle
and should be used for detecting the non-magnetic
coating’s thickness such as
chrome/copper/zinc/varnish/rubber on the iron/steel
substrate.
N probe works on the eddy current principle and
should be used for detecting the insulating coating’s
thickness such as paint/anodizing/ceramics on the
aluminum/copper/brass substrate.

Factors of Affecting Accuracy
User needs to know the factors of affecting
measurement accuracy before using the gauge. The
factors are listed as below:
Curvature radius convex <1.5mm
Curvature radius concave <25mm
Diameter of measuring area <6mm
Thickness of substrate <0.5mm
Surface roughness
Adhesive substances: clean the probe and
coating surface
Strong magnetic field around
Out of Operation Temperature and Humidity
Low Battery
Use the Gauge
Please refer to the factors of affecting measuring
accuracy before using.
1. Placing the Battery: Open the battery
compartment and insert 2*AAA batteries, Close the lip
2. Prepare the target samples for measuring.
3. Placing the gauge in the air, at least 5cm away
from any mental, then power on, wait for 5 seconds
for system initialization.
Note: Please upgrade batteries, if the LCD shows
low battery which will lead to the measurement
unreliable.
4. Press the um/mil key for unit choosing (um,
mil); Press the MODE key for selecting SNG/CON; SNG
means single measurement mode; CON means
continuous measurement mode.
5. Start Measuring. SNG (single point
measurement mode), vertically and rapidly placing the
probe on the sample, the readings display on LCD,
when one beep alerting. CON (rapidly continuous
measurement mode) Vertically placing the probe on
the sample, Keeping the probe on the sample,
changing the measurement point randomly to do the
next measuring.
6. Power Off. The gauge is built-in APO, auto
power off with no operations in 5min.
Measurement Modes
“SNG”: the Single Mode (Default), Press "MODE"
key to display SNG, Vertically and rapidly placing the
probe on the sample. The readings display on LCD
with one beeping. Hand up the probe more than 5cm
away from the mental, then do the next measuring,
as showing below:
“CON”: the Continuous Measurement Mode,
Pressing "MODE" key to display CON, vertically and
directly placing the probe on the sample. The readings
will continuously upgrade following with the probe
moving, as showing below:
