Nowadays, the demand for precise measurement of material thickness in the industrial field is becoming increasingly stringent. The iThick-220 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge, carefully developed by Mikrosize Company, has become a powerful assistant for many professionals due to its excellent performance and accuracy. Next, we will introduce the operation procedure of this instrument in detail.
Before using the Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge, the preparatory work is of vital importance. First, check the appearance of the instrument for any damage, and confirm that components such as the display screen and buttons are in good condition. At the same time, select a suitable probe according to the type of the material to be measured. For example, when measuring metal materials, a conventional probe can be selected; when measuring special materials such as ceramics, a specially designed probe is required. Prepare the coupling agent, such as commonly used Vaseline, sodium silicate, etc., to ensure that the probe is closely attached to the surface of the material to be measured and reduce the loss of sound wave transmission.
Turn on the Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge, and the display screen will light up and perform a self-check. After the self-check is completed, enter the parameter setting interface. The primary task is to set the sound velocity of the material. Mikrosize Company has preset the sound velocity values of a variety of common materials for this instrument. If the material to be measured is within the preset range, you can directly select it; if not, you can obtain the accurate sound velocity value by referring to the material manual or using a sample with a known thickness for calibration. In addition, according to the measurement accuracy requirements, set the appropriate measurement unit, either millimeters or inches.
During the measurement, first apply an appropriate amount of coupling agent to the surface of the material to be measured. Press the probe vertically on the position where the coupling agent is applied to ensure that the probe is in full contact with the surface of the material and there are no air bubbles left. The iThick-220 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge responds quickly, and the measurement data will be immediately displayed on the screen. During the measurement process, you can select multiple measurement points to ensure the accuracy and representativeness of the measurement results. For example, when measuring the thickness of a pipeline, measure at multiple positions around the circumference of the pipeline to avoid measurement errors caused by local corrosion or uneven thickness.
When viewing the measurement results, the display screen of the iThick-220 is clear and intuitive. It not only displays the immediate measurement value but also allows you to view the historical measurement data. Press a specific button, and you can switch on the display screen to view the data of different measurement points. You can also conduct statistical analysis of the measurement data, calculating the average value, maximum value, minimum value, etc.
After use, turn off the iThick-220 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge, wipe off the coupling agent on the probe with a clean soft cloth, and properly store the instrument and the probe. Regularly calibrate and maintain the instrument to ensure that the instrument is always in the best working condition and provides stable and reliable support for the measurement work. With these convenient and efficient operation designs, the iThick-220 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge is undoubtedly the best choice in the industrial measurement field and will surely bring great convenience to your work.
