## Function

Measures non-ferrous material thickness using magnetic probe and target balls. Employs Hall effect sensor to detect probe-target distance. Data logging capabilities with USB interface for data transfer and configuration. Operates in various modes, including single point, scan, and differential.

## Application

Precision measurement of nonferrous material thickness, including plastics, glass, and composites, using a Hall-effect sensor and magnetic probe technology. Commonly deployed in quality control, corrosion monitoring, and nondestructive testing (NDT) environments to obtain reliable, repeatable digital thickness readings. Interfaces via RS-232 for data output and supports on-board statistical reporting. Suitable for handheld operation with rechargeable battery power, featuring Min/Max capture modes to detect thickness variations, used across industrial manufacturing, plastic container inspection, and maintenance inspections where access to both sides of the material is possible to position the magnetic target ball.
