User-programmable calibration memories (T)
The Elcometer 456 Model T allows users to store into memory up to
three calibrations. Once a calibration memory has been saved, the
user can select the calibration memory - without the need to
re-calibrate the gauge.
Calibration memories are ideal for users who are inspecting coatings
on various curvatures, blast profiles or coating thicknesses.
Using the gauge’s alpha-numeric function, users can re-name the
calibration memory to suit the calibration setting.
For example:
Ÿ A user who is inspecting coatings on two blast profiles - shot and
grit could store calibrations into Cal Memory 1 and Cal Memory 2
and re-name them ‘Shot’ and ‘Grit’ respectively
Ÿ A user measuring on flat and curved surfaces could store the
calibrations into ‘Flat cal’ and ‘Curved cal’.
Ÿ Thick and thin coating thickness calibrations can also be saved
and renamed ‘320µm’ and ‘120µm’
For more information on re-naming calibration memories, see Alpha-
numeric naming of batches and cal memories on page 27.
