PCE-CT 65 Thickness Gauge
Non-destructive coating and dry film thickness (DFT) measuring device for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metal substrates
PCE-CT 65 is a thickness gauge that uses magnetic induction (ferrous) or eddy current (non-ferrous) to take non-destructive measurements of coating and dry film thickness (DFT) on metal substrates such as steel and aluminum. This thickness gauge is ideal for painted and powder-coated surface testing, automotive paint inspection, coated material testing, and manufacturing quality control applications.
The easy-to-use downloadable PC-compatible software included with this thickness gauge allows for detailed analysis of measurement results via computer. Measurement values are shown in a table and different working modes can be selected for data filtering. Statistics include the maximum, minimum and average value per working group. Statistics can be divided by ferrous and non-ferrous material. The software also counts how many readings have been stored in each material group. For more details, please refer to the user manual.

Calibration certificates are issued specifically for the customer and are excluded from the right of return.
ISO re-calibration incl. certificate for coating thickness
meter. This is often required to comply with DIN ISO 9000.
If your calibration certificate expires, you can easily return your meter for re-calibration.
We carry out the calibration and send you the device with a new calibration certificate.
