TT270 Coating Thickness Meter | Paint and Plating Gauge


Product Description

COATING THICKNESS METER WITH BUILT-IN PRINTER

TT270 Coating Thickness Meter

TT270 Coating Thickness Meter with Built-in Printer and Probe  

The TT270 coating thickness meter provides nondestructive measurements of paint, plating, and other nonmagnetic coatings on ferrous metals, as well as nonconductive coatings on nonferrous metals. Select the probe that matches the substrate, coating range, and access requirements.

With a built-in printer, on-device statistics, and memory for 640 readings, the TT270 supports both spot checks and routine quality-control work.

Key Features

Two MethodsMagnetic induction for ferrous substrates and eddy current for nonferrous substrates
Six ProbesCover standard checks, small areas, hard-to-reach locations, thick coatings, and specialized copper-plated applications
ModesSingle and continuous measurement; DIRECT and batch (APPL) working modes
StatisticsMean, maximum, minimum, reading count, and standard deviation on screen
Printer and MemoryBuilt-in printer, backlit display, and memory for up to 640 readings
Limits and PowerAdjustable high and low limits with alarm; manual and automatic power-off

Display, Keypad and Probe

The backlit LCD shows the reading together with the active probe indication. The keypad provides STATS, ZERO, FEED, MENU, PRINT, the arrow keys, ESC and power. The standard configuration is supplied with F1 and N1 probes; the probe connects to the instrument through a cable.

Applications

Use the TT270 paint thickness meter to check nonmagnetic coatings such as paint, zinc, aluminum, chrome, copper, rubber, and similar layers on steel, iron, and other ferrous metals. With an N-type probe, it measures nonconductive coatings such as paint, rubber, plastic, and oxide films on nonferrous metals including aluminum, copper, zinc, and tin.

Probe Selection and Specifications

Choose an F-type probe for magnetic-induction measurements on ferrous substrates, or an N-type probe for eddy-current measurements on nonferrous substrates. The TT270 standard configuration is supplied with F1 and N1 probes; other configurations use the probe shown below. F10 is an additional probe option.

Probe / order codeMethod and typical useRange / resolution
F400 / TT270F4Magnetic induction; thin coatings, small contact areas, and small curved parts0–400 μm; 0.1 μm
F1 / TT270F (included with TT270)Magnetic induction; general-purpose measurements on ferrous metals0–1,250 μm; 0.1 μm
F1/90° / TT270F19Magnetic induction; narrow spaces and hard-to-reach surfaces, including pipe interiors0–1,250 μm; 0.1 μm
F10 (additional probe option)Magnetic induction; thick coatings on ferrous substrates0–10,000 μm; 10 μm
N1 / TT270N (included with TT270)Eddy current; nonconductive coatings on nonferrous metals0–1,250 μm; 0–40 μm for chrome on copper; 0.1 μm
CN02 / TT270CNEddy current; specialized measurements such as copper foil on circuit boards10–200 μm; 1 μm

H = measured coating thickness. Accuracy values are probe-specific and depend on the selected calibration method.
