PosiTector 6000GP Coating Thickness Gauge
For General UseThe PosiTector 6000GP is a portable, electronic, and rugged coating thickness gauge designed to deliver high-precision, non-destructive measurements on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It utilises magnetic induction and eddy current principles to evaluate coating thickness, making it ideal for industrial applications where quality control is essential.
Key Features:
- Measurement Range: 0 – 1500 µm, allowing evaluation of coatings from very thin to moderately thick.
- Resolution: 0.1 µm, ensuring precise and consistent results.
- Compatible Substrates: Measures coatings on ferrous metals (F), non-ferrous metals (N), and combinations (FN).
- Available Configurations:
- Standard Model (1): Includes a high-contrast, reversible colour LCD display, 1000 reading memory, and USB data output.
- Advanced Model (3): Adds Scan Mode, real-time graphing via Bluetooth, and additional advanced functionalities.
- Non-Destructive Measurement: Evaluates coating thickness without damaging the surface, preserving the integrity of the material.
- High Precision and Speed: Advanced technology delivers accurate, real-time results, optimising quality control.
- Easy Integration and Operation: Its intuitive design and connectivity options (USB and Bluetooth in the advanced model) simplify data transfer and analysis, adapting to a variety of laboratory and field environments.
- Versatility in Application: Perfect for a wide range of industries, from automotive and construction to electroplating, where coating quality is critical.
