The Paint Gauge / Paint Tester can measure material thicknesses of up to 300 mm. To ensure that the material thickness of a wide variety of homogeneous materials can be measured, it is possible to save the corresponding sound velocity in the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester. For materials such as steel, aluminium, zinc, silver and gold, the appropriate sound velocities are already saved in the device library. This means that the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester can be used universally.

Individual maximum and minimum values can be saved using the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester's limit value function. If the measured value of the sample is outside the limits, the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester signals this visually. If required, the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester can also provide an acoustic signal in addition to the visual display. The Paint Gauge / Paint Tester is therefore used, for example, in quality assurance and incoming goods inspection.

The Paint Gauge / Paint Tester has a data memory in which the measured values can be recorded. After a measuring procedure, the saved readings can be analysed directly in the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester. The saved data is displayed as a graph on the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester. In addition, each individual measuring point can be approached and read in the graph of the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester. To simplify the analysis of the measured values, the average, the highest and lowest measured values are displayed on the Paint Gauge / Paint Tester. The Paint Gauge / Paint Tester can optionally be supplied with an ISO calibration certificate.
