Its low power consumption (< 100 mW) and auto power-off function ensure prolonged battery life, making it suitable for prolonged on-site use. The practical design further includes a secure 1 m probe cable and ergonomic handheld form factor.
FAQ's of Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge:
Q: How do I calibrate the UTG-111 Series Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge?
A: Calibration can be performed using the single-point or two-point calibration modes directly through the device interface. Simply follow the on-screen instructions and use certified reference blocks to set accurate baseline readings before taking measurements.
Q: What materials can this ultrasonic thickness gauge measure?
A: The UTG-111 is capable of measuring the thickness of metals, plastics, ceramics, glass, and other materials that conduct ultrasonic waves effectively. This makes it suitable for a range of industrial and quality control tasks.
Q: When does the auto power-off feature activate?
A: The auto power-off function is activated after 5 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life, ensuring continued operation in the field without unnecessary power drain.
Q: Where can this gauge be used effectively?
A: Thanks to its portable, durable design and broad operating temperature range (-10C to +60C), the gauge can be used in industrial settings, manufacturing sites, quality inspections, and field environments throughout India.
Q: What is the measurement process using this device?
A: To measure thickness, apply coupling gel to the material's surface, place the probe directly using the 1 m cable, ensure the visual coupling indicator is active, and read the value from the backlit LCD. Measurements are delivered in less than 0.5 seconds.
Q: What are the benefits of the data hold and backlight functions?
A: The data hold feature allows you to freeze the latest measurement for easy recording, while the selectable backlight ensures clear readings in dark or poorly lit spaces, enhancing usability and accuracy during inspections.
Q: How does the low battery indication work and what is the power supply?
A: A visual low battery indicator alerts you when power is running low. The gauge operates on two 1.5V AA alkaline batteries, offering efficient and extended use thanks to the device's low (<100 mW) power consumption.
