Overview
The PosiTector 6000 FNDS1 is a Defelsko brand Coating thickness gauge with the FNDS Probe for simultaneous measurement of paints and zinc layer thickness in composite coating systems, with a single reading. The instrument is suitable for paints or powder coating systems on galvanized steel and provides better corrosion protection than individual protection systems.
Features
1. Simultaneous measurement of paints and zinc layer thickness in composite coating systems as a single reading
2. Using magnetic Induction (iron) and eddy current (non-iron) dual principle measurement
3. Suitable for paints or powder coating systems on galvanized steel
4. When the composite mode is not available, it can be used as a traditional iron/non-iron dual-function thickness gauge
5. Compatible with PosiTector advanced and color LCD standard measurement instrument host
6. Equipped with statistical functions including measurement count, MAX Maximum, MIN Minimum, Average and Standard Deviation
7. Support USB Interface and supporting software
8. Provide calibrated certificate
Principle
In composite mode, the PosiTector 6000 FNDS uses both magnetic Induction and eddy current for measurement. The magnetic Induction principle is used to measure the total thickness of the paint/zinc layer on an iron substrate, while the eddy Current principle is used to measure the thickness of the paint layer on a non-ferrous zinc layer. The zinc layer thickness is calculated by subtracting the paint layer thickness from the total thickness of the paint/zinc layer.
Applications
Galvanized steel paints coating measurement, galvanized steel powder coating measurement, composite coating system thickness detection
Standards
ISO 2178/2360/2808、PrEN ISO 19840、ASTM B499/D1186/D1400/D7091/E376/G12、BS3900-C5、SSPC-PA2
Steps
1. Install 3 AAA alkaline batteries
2. Select Measurement mode (composite mode or traditional dual function mode)
3. Probe placed on the surface of the coating to be tested for measurement
4. Read the thickness value on the display
5. Connect the computer through the USB interface and use the supporting software to manage the data
