3000FX Series 3000FX SERIES Coating Thickness Gauge

High Temperature Probe Footer The high temperature probe footer is a beige contact ring made of heat-resistant plastic. This ring has a shape that is identical to the original black v-grooved ring and is available for the 3000FX and 3000PRO only. With this probe footer, hot coatings such as freshly-burnt-in powder coatings can be measured with a surface temperature of up to 150°C (302°F).

Removable V-Groove Ring The V-Groove ring can be removed to allow pin-point measurement on complex shapes.

3000FX SERIES Coating Thickness Gauge

The Checkline 3000FX series of coating thickness gauges is designed to deliver fast, non-destructive, and exceptionally precise measurements across a wide range of applications. Ideal for evaluating varnish, paint, and galvanic coatings on ferrous metals as well as paint, varnish, and anodised coatings on non-ferrous metals and even austenitic stainless steels, this series is an indispensable tool for ensuring a reliable and aesthetically pleasing finish on any product.

Key Features:

3 Available Models:
- DCF-3000FX: Designed for measurements on ferrous metals.
- DCN-3000FX: Specialised for measurements on non-ferrous metals.
- DCFN-3000FX: Provides a combined solution for measurements on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Wide Measurement Range: Ranging from 0 to 1500 µm (0 to 60 mils), ideal for controlling coating thickness in various industrial applications.
Multifunctional Interface: Fully menu-driven for fast, professional, and precise operation.
High-Quality External Probes: Manufactured to extremely high standards and equipped with a unique hard-metal probe tip that minimises wear.
Special Accessory: A V-notched footer provides a stable base for small cylindrical parts, which can be removed to reveal a "micro-probe" sensor perfect for measuring on small surfaces and components.

Key Benefits:

Non-Destructive Measurement: Ensures that the surfaces evaluated remain undamaged during inspection.
Precision and Reliability: Consistent results that guarantee a high-quality finish, essential for corrosion protection and mechanical performance.
Versatility of Application: Ideal for a wide range of industries, from automotive to construction, where coating thickness is crucial for both aesthetics and functionality.
Ease of Use: Its intuitive digital interface allows for simple control, whether in the laboratory or in the field, optimising time and productivity.

The 3000FX Series is a compact, lightweight coating thickness gauge for operators who require both innovative and user-friendly measuring techniques
The 3000FX Series ensures non-destructive coating thickness measurement on steel and non Ferrous metals
Data transfer to a printer or PC takes place via an infra-red interface
A great number of readings can be statistically evaluated: number of readings, mean value, standard deviation, minimum and maximum reading. 200 readings can be stored in the memory.
The 3000FX Series identifies the substrate and activates the appropriate measuring procedure.
Menu in a choice of three languages ensures ease of operation
The uniform contact pressure of the sensor is kept to a minimum, preventing scratches and indentations to sensitive surfaces.
NIST Certificate Included at no additional cost
Up to 10 000 readings can be statistically evaluated: number of readings, mean value, standard deviation, minimum and maximum reading.
