Bside CCT01 Digital Coating Thickness Gauge User Manual

Model: CCT01

1. Proizvod je gotovview

The Bside CCT01 Digital Coating Thickness Gauge is designed for non-destructive, fast, and precise measurement of coating thickness. It operates based on either the magnetic induction principle (F probe) or the eddy current principle (N probe), depending on the substrate material. This device is equipped with both internal F and N probes.

The F probe is suitable for measuring non-magnetic coatings such as aluminum, chrome, copper, zinc, paint, varnish, enamel, and rubber on iron or steel substrates. It is also applicable to alloyed and hardened magnetic steel, but not austenitic steel.

The N probe is used for insulating coatings like paint, anodizing, and ceramics on all non-ferrous metals (e.g., aluminum, copper, zinc die casting, brass) and on austenitic stainless steels.

3.2 Uključivanje/isključivanje

  • Za uključivanje pritisnite i držite Snaga dugme.
  • Uređaj će se automatski isključiti nakon određenog perioda neaktivnosti kako bi se uštedjelo trajanje baterije.

4. Uputstvo za upotrebu

4.1 Načini mjerenja

  • Jednostruki način rada: For individual measurements. Press the probe onto the surface, read the value, then lift.
  • Kontinuirani način rada: For scanning a surface. Keep the probe on the surface and slide it to take multiple readings.

4.2 Group Modes

  • Direct (DIR) Group: Readings are displayed but not stored in memory. Data is lost when the device powers off.
  • General (GEN) Group: Readings are automatically stored. Up to 80 readings can be stored for each of the four general groups. Each group maintains individual statistics, alarm limits, and calibration settings.

4.3 Kalibracija

Accurate measurements require proper calibration. The device supports zero-point and multi-point calibration.

  1. Kalibracija nulte tačke: Used to set the zero reference on an uncoated substrate.
  2. Multi-Point Calibration (up to 4 points): For enhanced accuracy across the measurement range, using calibration foils of known thickness.

Refer to the on-screen menu for detailed calibration steps.

4.4 Probe Modes

The device can automatically detect the substrate type or be manually set.

  • Automatski režim: The gauge automatically selects between F (magnetic induction) and N (eddy current) probe principles.
  • Magnetic Mode (F Probe): For non-magnetic coatings on ferrous substrates.
  • Eddy Current Mode (N Probe): For insulating coatings on non-ferrous substrates.

4.5 Postavljanje alarma

Users can set high and low alarm limits for each group. An alarm icon will be displayed on the LCD when a reading exceeds these limits.

4.6 Data Management and Statistics

Navigate through the menu to:

  • podsjetiti: View pohranjena očitanja.
  • Izbriši: Remove specific readings or clear an entire group.
  • Browse Statistics: View calculated statistics including the number of readings, mean, minimum, maximum, and standard deviation for the current group.

5. Prijenos podataka

The Bside CCT01 features a USB interface for transferring measurement data to a computer. This allows for further analysis and record-keeping.

6. Održavanje

6.1 Zamjena baterije

When the low battery indicator appears, replace the AAA batteries as described in Section 3.1. Always use fresh batteries for optimal performance.

6.2 Čišćenje

Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Keep the probe tip clean and free of debris for accurate readings.

6.3 Skladištenje

Store the device in its original packaging or a protective case when not in use. Avoid extreme temperatures and high humidity. If storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.

7. Otkrivanje problema

  • Indikacija slabe baterije: If the low battery icon appears, replace the batteries immediately.
  • Indikacija greške: If an error message is displayed, refer to the device's on-screen help or power cycle the device. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
  • Netačna očitavanja: Ensure the probe tip is clean, the device is properly calibrated, and the correct probe mode (F/N/Auto) is selected for the substrate.
