APPLICATION
This compact and handy gauge is designed for non-destructive, fast and precise coating thickness measurement. The principal applications lie in the field of corrosion protection. It is ideal for manufacturers and their customers, for offices and specialist advisers, for paint shops and electroplaters, for the chemical, automobile, shipbuilding and aircraft industries and for light and heavy engineering.
The TA090 gauge is suitable for laboratory, workshop and outdoor use.
The probe can work on two principles, either magnetic induction or the eddy current principle. One probe only is required for coating measurement both on ferrous and non-ferrous metal substrates. It is adaptable to specific tasks: i.e. they can be used on special geometries or on materials with special properties.

DESCRIPTION OF THE GAUGE
For measurement on steel substrates, the gauge will work on the magnetic induction principle. For measurement on non-ferrous metal substrates, it works on the eddy current principle. Measurement values and user information are shown on LCD. A display back light ensures easy reading of screen data in dark conditions.
Two different operating modes are available: DIRECT mode and GROUP mode.
DIRECT mode is recommended for simple, quick, occasional measurements. It provides statistical analysis. Single values are not saved. The statistical analysis program can evaluate 80 readings. GROUP mode permits measurement and storage of readings in a free programmable memory. A maximum of 400 readings and 4 series of measurements can be analysed according to various statistical criteria.

PRODUCT PACKAGE CONTENTS
Gauge with two 1.5V batteries, plastics carrying case, operating instructions (English), steel and aluminium sample plates. USB connecting cable and program disc for Windows 98/2000/XP/Vista/7/ 8/10.

PROBE DESCRIPTION
The probe at the bottom of the gauge is spring-mounted in the probe sleeve. This ensures safe and stable positioning of the probe and constant contact pressure. A V-groove in the collar around the probe facilitates reliable readings on small cylindrical parts. The hemispherical tip of the probe is made of hard and durable material. Keep probe collar level and stable on object to be measured

OPERATING MODES

Measuring, Storage and Data processing in DIRECT and GROUP mode
This gauge offers two operating modes: DIRECT and GROUP mode. The GROUP mode includes GROUPS 1 to 4.

DIRECT
mode is intended for quick occasional readings. In this mode, individual readings are logged to memory provisionally. When the gauge is turned OFF or switched to GROUP mode, all readings will be lost. But the statistic values won’t be changed until logging new measurement readings. The readings and statistical values can be shown on the LCD display. The statistical analysis program can evaluate 80 readings. When the memory is full, new readings will replace old readings. In this mode, it has individual calibration values and limit values. In GROUP mode, every group memory can store a maximum of 80 single readings, and 5 Statistic values. Calibration values and limit values can individually be set and stored for every group.

When the memory is full, measuring will proceed sequentially, but will not be stored and statistic values won’t be changed. If required, you can delete group data and statistic values, and reset calibrate values and limit values. You can select DIRECT or GROUP mode in the MENU system using the following ‘path’: (MENU / Options / Working mode / Direct – Group 1 – Group 2 – Group 3 – Group 4) When group mode has been selected via the MENU system the group chosen will appear on the LCD display in abb reviated form i.e.GRO1, GRO2, GRO3, GRO4. If the gauge is switched on whilst holding the probe away from the test object, it will initiate in DIRECT mode and the last reading will be shown (if available).

CALIBRATION & MEASUREMENT

CALIBRATION METHODS (General Hints for Calibration).
There are four different methods available for calibration: Basic calibration: recommended for measurement on even surfaces and if the measuring object has the same material, size and curvature as the zero plate attached in the casing. Zero-point calibration: recommended if measurement errors of up to ±3% of reading plus constant error of probe, are permitted. (Example for constant of probe showing error: Fe 1um; no-Fe 1.5um) 14.1.3 One-point calibration (calibrating using a calibration foil): recommended if readings are expected to be close to the calibration value and if the permitted error of the probe will be a maximum of ±1%…3% of reading plus constant probe error. Two-point calibration (using a set of two calibration foils):

Recommended for measurements on rough surfaces.
Recommended for precise measurements on smooth surfaces if the thickness to be expected lies between that of the two calibration foils.

STORING CALIBRATION VALUES
If the gauge is calibrated for a particular purpose, the calibration values will be stored in memory until changed.

NOTE : The calibration procedure should be restarted from the beginning if

An incorrect reading has been taken.
An incorrect command has been entered.
The gauge has switched off.

CALIBRATION EXAMPLE
Calibration is the most important requirement for accurate measurement. The more closely the calibration sample matches the product sample, the more accurate the calibration, and therefore the more accurate the reading will be. If for instance, a product is to be measured on a steel cylinder, quality ST37(mild steel), diameter 6mm, the calibration of the uncoated sample must take place on a steel cylinder of similar quality with the same diameter. The calibration sample must correspond to the product sample in the following ways:

Curvature radius
Substrate material properties
Substrate thickness
Size of measuring area
The point at which the calibration is made on the calibration sample must always be identical with the point of measurement on the product itself, especially in the case of corners and edges of small parts.

HIGH-ACCURACY CALIBRATION
To achieve high-accuracy readings, it is advisable to log calibration values (both zero values and calibration foil values) several times in succession. In this way, the gauge will automatically establish a mean calibration value. For more details see 14.6 ‘Special hints for calibration’. The high-accuracy calibration is an obvious advantage when calibrating on uneven, e.g. shot- blasted, surfaces.

CLEANING THE MEASURING POINT
Before calibration of the measuring point, the probe tip must be free from grease, oil, scraps of metal, etc. The slightest impurity will affect measurement and distort readings.

SPECIAL HINTS FOR CALIBRATION
The basic calibration stored in the gauge should only be used for measurements on even surfaces, i.e. on steel components made of conventional steel (mild steel) or on aluminium components. Firstly, enter into Calibration Mode via the following ‘path’ (Menu – Calibration – Enable). Then the LCD display will show “Cal n(or 1~2) Zero n(or y)”. The “n” means “not any point calibration and Zero calibration, and “y” means “there is Zero calibration”. “Cal 1~2” means” There is One or Two point Calibration”. After finishing all Calibration tasks, we advise that you disable calibration via the MENU system.

Switch the gauge on (keep it away from any metal by at least 10cm).
Have substrate sample and necessary foils (calibration standard) to hand.
Set work mode i.e. continuous or single via MENU system.

ZERO-POINT CALIBRATION (no need to enable calibration)
Place the probe on an uncoated sample (zero coating thickness) ensuring it is vertical and stable . The LCD display will display a value (x.x um). (The operation differs between continuous mode and single mode. See the work mode section for more details). Then, raise the probe rapidly from the metal substrate by at least 10cm. Now press and hold the ‘Zero’ button for about 1.5seconds, the LCD displays 0.0 um. The calibration is finished. Repeat this procedure several times. The calibration system always saves the mean value of the previous calibration point.

NOTE : You can delete any existing zero point calibration settings not required before making new zero point calibrations via the MENU system. The gauge always calculates the mean of the latest 5 calibration readings. When full, the newest calibration value will replace the oldest calibration value. We suggest that you make a Zero calibration when starting a measurement.

ONE-POINT CALIBRATION
This method is recommended for high precision measurements, measurements on small parts and on hardened and low-alloy steel. Perform a zero-point calibration as described in 14.1.2. Lay the calibration foil on an uncoated sample, apply the probe and wait for a steady reading. Remove the probe from the sample & press the UP or DOWN keys to adjust to the required foil thickness. The thickness of the foil should be roughly equivalent to the estimated coating thickness. 14.8.3. Repeat step 14.8.2 several times to achieve the mean value of previous calibration readings. 14.8.4. Now take readings by placing the probe on the coating and raise it if steady. It may be necessary to delete calibration, e.g. after entry of a faulty calibration value: (MENU – Delete – Delete group data). (NOTE: It will delete all data, limit data, one-point and two-point calibrations except for zero-point calibration). This will reactivate the default basic calibration for use on even surfaces.

NOTE : The meter calculates the mean of the 5 calibration latest readings. When full, the newest calibration value will replace the oldest calibration value.

Press the righthand ‘bar’ key to exit current calibration. Or else, after about 30 seconds, the calibration will be become effective automatically. Press Zero button to make current calibration effective. Even while a series of measurements is being taken, foil calibration can be carried out as often as necessary. The old calibration will be overwritten; the Zero calibration remains in memory.

WO-POINT CALIBRATION
We recommend that the gauge is used in single work mode. If necessary switch to this mode using the MENU system. This method requires the use of two different foils. The thicker one should be, if possible, 1.5times as thick as the thin one. For best results, the thickness to be expected should be somewhere between the two calibration values.
This method is especially suitable for taking measurements on rough shot- blasted surfaces or for high-precision readings. It is advisable to take several readings to achieve a mean value. This considerably reduces the effect of scattering which occurs during calibration of upper and lower values. The calibration foils may be used in any order.

Zero-point calibration according to section 14.1.2
The first point calibration according to section 14.1.3
Repeat the above step .
Take readings by placing the probe on the coating to be measured and raise it after the beep. The reading is shown on the display.

NOTE:

Apply the probe to test sample several times.
The thickness of the foil should be roughly equivalent to the estimated coating thickness. 14.9.7 Even while a series of measurements is being taken, foil calibration can be carried as often as necessary. The old calibration will be overwritten; the ZERO calibration remains in memory until a new zero point calibration is made.
See one-point calibration for more information.

SHOT-BLASTED SURFACES
The physical nature of shot-blased surfaces results in coating thickness reading that are too high. The mean thickness over the peaks can be determined as follows (The statistics program is not of great benefit in this procedure):

Method A:
14.10.1 The gauge should be calibrated according to 14.8 or 14.9. Use a smooth calibration sample with the same curvature radius and the same substrate as the later measuring sample. 14.10.2 Now take approx. 10 readings on the uncoated, shot-blased sample to produce the mean value Xo 14.10.3 After this take approx. 10 further readings on coated, shot blasted test sample to produce the mean value Xm 4. The difference between the two mean values is the mean coating thickness Xeff over the peaks. The greater standard deviations of the two values Xm and Xo should also be taken into consideration: Xeff=(Xm- Xo)±S

Method B:
14.10.4 Carry out a zero calibration of 10 readings on a shot-blased, uncoated sample. Then carry out a foil calibration on the uncoated substrate. The foil set should consist of a number of individual foils of max. 50 microns thickness each and should roughly correspond to the estimated coating thickness. 14.10.5 The coating thickness can be read directly from display and should be averaged from 5 to 10 single measurements. The statistics function is useful here.

Method C:
This method also gives reliable results. Simply follow the two-point calibration method using two foils as described in section 14.9. For a maximum approach to the respective nature of surface, the foil value can be reached by using several foils – 50um each. The mean coating thickness should be calculated from 5 to 10 readings. The statistics program is very useful here.

NOTE:
For coatings thicker than 300 um, the influence of roughness generally is of no importance and it will not be necessary to apply above calibration methods.

GENERAL REMARKS ON MEASUREMENT
After careful calibration has been made, all subsequent measurements will lie within the guaranteed measuring tolerance. Strong magnetic fields near generators or live rails with strong currents can affect the reading. When using the statistics program for obtaining a mean value it is advisable to place the probe several times at a typical measuring spot. Any false readings can be removed immediately Via the MENU system. The final reading derives from the statistical calculation and from the guaranteed tolerance levels of the gauge. Coating Thickness D =X±s±u

LIMIT FUNCTION

Limits can be entered in DIRECT and a selected GROUP memory at any time, i.e. before, during and after a series of measurements. There is practical use for limits. Any reading which falls outside the set tolerance limits will be registered by a warning indication: H: reading above HI limit L: reading below LO limit Please set the limit values using the MENU system.

MEASUREMENT USING STATISTICS

16.1 The gauge calculates statistics from a maximum of 80 readings(GRO1 to GRO4: in total, a maximum of 320 readings can be stored). In addition, readings can’t be stored in DIR mode, but it can calculate statistics as GRO1~GRO4. When power off or changing Work Mode(see MENU system for details), the DIR statistics will be lost. The following statistical values are calculated:

NO.: number of readings in Work Mode
AVG : average value
Sdev. : standard deviation

STATISTICAL TERMS
Average value The sum of readings divided by the number of readings.

Standard Deviation(Sdev.)
The sample standard deviation is a statistic that measures how “spread out” the sample is around the sample mean. The sample standard deviation increases with increasing spread out. The standard deviation of a set of numbers is the root mean square of the variance S²
The variance of a list is the square of the standard deviation of the list, that is, the average of the squares of the deviations of the numbers in the list from their mean divided by the(number of readings -1 )

NOTE: Deletion must take place immediately after a false or erratic reading has been taken. See the Delete function in MENU system.

STORAGE CAPACITY OVERFLOW
In GROUP mode, If the storage capacity is exceeded, statistics will not be updated, although measurement can continue. If the memory is full, subsequent readings will be omitted from the statistics. In this case the word “FULL” will be shown on the LCD in single measuring mode. In DIRECT mode, if the memory is full. The newest reading will replace the oldest reading. And the statistics will be updated.

DELETE FUNCTIONS

In the MENU system, you can find the following functions:

Delete current data : If you find the last measurement reading is wrong, you can delete it via this function. At the same time, the statistics will be updated.
Delete all data : You can delete all data and statistics of the Current Work Mode.
Delete Group data : This function includes “Delete all data” function. In addition, this function will delete High alarm, Low alarm, and One & Two point calibrations.
