Overview
The MC3000F/N dual-use Coating thickness gauge is a multi-function measurement device launched by KODIN, which cleverly combines two measurement technologies: magnetic Induction (F-type Probe) and eddy Current (N-type Probe). Users can flexibly choose the corresponding Probe according to the measured base material (ferromagnetic metal or non-ferromagnetic metal) to achieve non-destructive and convenient Coating thickness measurement, which greatly expands the application range of the instrument.
Features
1. Using F/N split Probe design, one machine dual-use, can measure nonmagnetic coatings on ferromagnetic metal substrates and nonconductive coatings on non-ferromagnetic metal substrates.
2. Adopt unique deviation automatic tracking technology to improve measurement accuracy.
3. Probe is machined using German process standards, using new alloy materials, with high service life and accuracy.
4. Measurement mode: normal mode, MIN Minimum mode, statistical mode.
5. With Monitoring Measurement mode, support difference setting and upper and lower limit alarm.
6. Powerful data management function, support group storage (a total of 6 groups, each group of 99 measurement points), selectively delete data.
7. Support a variety of Calibration methods: zero point calibrating, two point calibrating and system calibrating.
8. Equipped with 128 * 64 point array LCD screen, support Chinese graphic display.
9. Support data printout (optional printer is required).
10. Automatic shutdown, backlight switch can be set, and factory settings can be restored.
Principle
The instrument works based on two physical principles: magnetic Induction and eddy Current. When using the F-Probe, the magnetic Induction principle is used to measure the thickness of nonmagnetic coatings (e.g. paints, plastics, zinc, chromium) on ferromagnetic substrates (e.g. steel, iron). When using the N-Probe, the eddy Current principle is used to measure the thickness of nonconductive coatings (e.g. paints, rubber, plastics, oxide films) on non-ferromagnetic metal substrates (e.g. copper, aluminum, zinc, tin).
Applications
Machinery, Automobile, Shipbuilding, Petroleum, Chemical, Eletroplating, Spray, Enamel, Plastic
Steps
1. Select the appropriate F-type or N-type Probe according to the tested substrate material (ferromagnetic or non-ferromagnetic) and connect it to the host.
2. Boot, zero point calibrating, two point calibrating or system calibrating as needed.
3. Select the desired Measurement mode (e.g. General, MIN Minimum, Statistical or Monitor mode).
4. In the monitoring mode, the difference and upper and lower limit alarm values can be set.
5. Place Probe vertically on the surface of the coating to be tested for measurement.
6. The measurement data can be automatically stored, and the user can view it in groups, selectively delete it or print it through the optional printer.
7. After use, you can set the automatic shutdown to save power.
Notice
• Make sure the Probe is perpendicular to the coating surface during measurement to obtain accurate data.
• The instrument supports data packet storage and management, please pay attention to regular backup of important data.
• Before making accurate measurements, it is recommended to use random standard samples to calibrate the instrument.
• Optional printer, microcomputer communication software or internal corrosion protection Probe to meet specific needs.
• Please pay attention to the battery voltage prompt icon in the upper left corner of the display screen, and replace the battery in time to ensure normal use.
