As well as all the features of the MTG2, the MTG4 has two calibration options. Using an uncoated sample of test material of a known thickness, the gauge can be calibrated using 1-Point calibration. Alternatively, the user can select one of 39 pre-set materials stored within the gauge including; aluminium, steel, stainless steel, cast iron, plexiglass, PVC, polystyrene and polyurethane.
Measurement Mode
Echo-Echo ThruPaint™ (E-E) measurement mode enables readings to be taken on coated materials with a thickness range up to 25.4mm (1”). In Echo-Echo ThruPaint™ mode, the coating thickness is ignored and the material thickness from the top surface of the material to the material density boundary is displayed.
Data Output
Compatible with ElcoMaster® software, individual readings can be downloaded via USB to PC or similar device for further analysis.
