    PosiTector 200 Ultrasonic Coating Thickness Gauge

    Ultrasonic coating thickness gauge for wood, concrete, plastic and other non-metal substrates

    The PosiTector 200 measures coating thickness non-destructively using ultrasonic technology. It is designed for coatings on non-metal materials such as wood, plastic, concrete and fibreglass, and, unlike a magnetic or eddy-current gauge, it does not need an uncoated substrate to zero.

    Choose a Standard gauge body to measure the total thickness of a coating system, or an Advanced body to measure the total thickness or up to three individual layers in a multilayer system, depending on the materials being tested. Advanced models also provide a graphics mode, expanded data storage and wireless connectivity.

    Three interchangeable probes cover different applications: B for polymer coatings on wood and plastic (13–1,000 µm), C for coatings on concrete and fibreglass (50–3,800 µm), and D for very thick or soft coatings such as polyurea (50–7,600 µm; limited to 5,000 µm for polyurea).

    Each complete gauge configuration combines one body and one probe. The Ordering Guide below explains the differences between PosiTector 200 B1, B3, C1, C3, D1 and D3 before you select a model.

    • Non-destructive ultrasonic measurement of coating thickness on wood, concrete, plastic, fibreglass and other non-metal substrates
    • Standard models measure the total thickness of a coating system; Advanced models can also measure up to three individual layers, depending on the materials
    • Three interchangeable probe ranges: B (13–1,000 µm), C (50–3,800 µm) and D (50–7,600 µm) for polymer-based coatings
    • Advanced models include a graphics mode with screen capture for detailed analysis of the coating system
    • Standard models store 1,000 readings per probe; Advanced models store 250,000 readings in up to 1,000 batches
    • USB connection and continuous USB power on both body types; WiFi and Bluetooth on Advanced models
    • Large 2.8-inch colour touchscreen with keypad navigation and on-gauge help
    • IP65-rated, weatherproof, dustproof and water-resistant enclosure with protective rubber holster
    • Adjustable measurement range helps exclude unwanted echoes when measuring textured or rough coatings
    • Interchangeable PosiTector gauge body accepts PosiTector probes for other measurement applications
    • Ultrasonic coating thickness measurement conforms to ASTM D6132 and ISO 2808
    Ordering Guide

    The PosiTector 200 is supplied in six configurations. First choose the gauge body for the measurements and data functions you need, then choose the probe for your coating and substrate.

    Step 1: Choose Standard or Advanced

    Standard (1): Measures total coating thickness and stores 1,000 readings per probe. Includes a USB connection.

    Advanced (3): Adds measurement of up to three individual layers in suitable multilayer coating systems, a graphics mode, storage of 250,000 readings in up to 1,000 batches, and WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity.

    Both gauge bodies use the same B, C and D probe ranges and accuracies. Choose Advanced when individual layer measurements or its additional data functions are required.

    Step 2: Choose the probe

    ProbeTypical applicationMeasurement range

    B

    Polymer coatings on wood, plastic and composites

    13–1,000 µm

    C

    Coatings on concrete and fibreglass

    50–3,800 µm

    D

    Very thick or soft coatings, including polyurea

    50–7,600 µm
    Polyurea: 50–5,000 µm

    Measurement range limits apply to polymer-based coatings. The suitability of a probe for other coating systems depends on the application.

    Step 3: Select your model

    The letter identifies the probe; the final digit identifies the gauge body: 1 = Standard and 3 = Advanced.

    For individual layer measurements, the minimum stated layer thickness is 13 µm with probe B, 50 µm with probe C and 500 µm with probe D. These limits apply to Advanced configurations and depend on the materials being tested.

    Measuring on Rough Surfaces

    Textured and rough coatings can produce unwanted ultrasonic echoes that affect thickness readings. The PosiTector 200 allows the measurement range to be adjusted so that echoes below a selected minimum thickness can be excluded.

    Use the Set Range function to adjust the lower measuring limit for the expected coating thickness. Check the settings against a representative sample before testing. The video demonstrates techniques for measuring rough surfaces.
