MG2 Series Ultrasonic Gages are designed for a
wide range of applications including quick spot measurements to
determine wall thickness of various structures and measurement of
corroded metal. The MG2 series includes:
• MG2 - Features include: Automatic probe recognition, quick
compensations for transducer temperature changes, fast scan min
hold mode with 20 readings/sec and freeze function, selectable
Hold or Blank display during loss of signal (LOS) conditions,
LCD with selectable backlight or auto backlight for a highly
readable display under all lighting conditions, selectable English/
metric units, selectable calibration lockout functions to prevent
accidental change to calibration, selectable resolutions .001"
(.01mm) or .01" (.1mm), easy calibration for unknown material
velocity and/or transducer zero, and automatic power off.
• MG2-XT - Features include: Automatic probe recognition, quick
compensations for transducer temperature changes, fast scan min
hold mode with 20-readings/sec and freeze function, freeze func-
tion that instantly freezes displayed measurement, differential
mode that displays the difference between the actual thickness
and a user set nominal reference value, THRU-COAT

that dis-
plays the thickness of the coating and the true metal thickness
using a single backwall echo, Echo-to-Echo that displays the true
metal thickness and ignores the thickness of the coating layer,
High-Low Alarm that indicates out of tolerance measurements,
Gain Adjustment to help enable measurements in difficult appli-
cations, Material Sensitivity Optimization, selectable Hold or
