PCE Instruments TG 50 Ultrasonic Material Thickness Meter 1.2 to 200 mm

Model # TG 50

PCE-TG 50 is a compact ultrasonic material thickness meter or gauge used to measure the thickness of metal, glass, plastic and other homogeneous materials.
This portable handheld material thickness gauge operates with an external ultrasonic contact transducer sensor probe and requires the use of coupling gel or paste.
The probe directs ultrasonic waves through the coupling gel into the material to be tested. Since different materials conduct ultrasound at different speeds or velocities, the PCE-TG 50 material thickness gauge allows for ultrasound velocity adjustments to accommodate a wide variety of material testing applications.

With the PCE-TG 50 ultrasonic material thickness gauge, you can determine the thickness of metal, glass, plastic and other homogeneous materials in seconds. Operation of the ultrasonic material thickness gauge is easily carried out via the seven-button interface. Using the integrated calibration block, the measuring device can be calibrated onsite or in the field with minimal effort. Measured values can be transferred to a PC using the optional software and connection cable (sold separately – see accessories for details). The software also offers the possibility to export the data into Microsoft Excel.
