Overview
Polystyrene calibrate blocks are an excellent choice for verifying film thickness gauge accuracy and operation, and are an important part of meeting ISO and internal quality control requirements. Many organizations require that the thickness gauge's Precision be verified at the test site each time a film thickness gauge is put into service, and frequently during use. The DeFelsko-certified Coating thickness standard, with measurements traceable to national Measurement bodies, is well suited for this purpose.
Features
Used to verify the accuracy and operation of any Type 1 (mechanical) and Type 2 (electronic) magnetic, eddy current or ultrasonic film thickness gauge.
2. Suitable for calibrating laboratory, field or factory floor.
3. Polystyrene Film thickness standard 4 blocks provided by sturdy acrylic storage box.
4. Separate serialization to trace back to NIST or PTB, including calibrated certificates.
5. Metric and imperial units are both certified and marked.
6. Zero version can be used for certified coated metal sheets and certified polystyrene blocks.
Principle
This product is used as a standard reference for known Film thickness. By measuring the film thickness gauge on the standard block, the measurement result is compared with the certified Film thickness value of the standard block to verify whether the Measurement accuracy and operation of the thickness gauge are normal.
Applications
Film thickness gauge calibrating, field accuracy verification, laboratory quality control, factory floor testing
Standards
ISO standards, internal quality control requirements
Steps
1. Remove the desired polystyrene calibrating block from the acrylic storage box.
2. Place the film thickness gauge probe to be verified smoothly on the surface of the standard block.
3. Read and record the measurement value displayed by the thickness gauge.
4. Compare the measurement value with the certified Film thickness value of the standard block on the calibrated certificate to verify the accuracy of the thickness gauge.
Notice
• Before use, check whether the surface of the standard block is clean and scratch-free.
• Please keep the calibrated certificate properly for traceability.
• Please put the standard block back in the protective box after use to avoid bumping and contamination.
Do not use in environments beyond the specified conditions, so as not to affect the accuracy of the standard block.
• The compatible models are PosiTector 6000 FNG/S, FLS series, please confirm compatibility before use.
