It is critical to calibrate a coating thickness gauge to ensure the highest level of measurement accuracy. Digital coating thickness gauges can be calibrated using certified standards or precision foils, also referred to as calibration shims. Calibration is the process of setting the gauge to known values of thickness to ensure accuracy on different substrate types, shapes and surface finishes. Calibrating the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge with Ultra/Scan Probe is really easy. Simply select the Auto Repeat Mode and follow the on-screen prompts to ensure the highest level of measurement accuracy. The Elcometer 456’s patented offset feature ensures any cap wear during use is incorporated within the calibration procedure.

While you can use the Elcometer 456 as an integral gauge - allowing for consistent, repeatable, dry film thickness results through single-handed use - the separate Elcometer 456 models can be used with a wide range of probes to provide even greater coating thickness measurement flexibility. Featuring a highly durable ‘snap on’ replaceable probe cap, the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge Ultra/Scan Probe is a revolutionary design which allows users to take individual dry film thickness readings or rapidly scan large surface areas - without damaging the probe or the coating. When used in conjunction with the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge Scan or Auto Repeat Modes, the Ultra/Scan Probe enables users to significantly reduce dry film thickness inspection times without affecting accuracy. The Ultra/Scan Probe uses the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge’s patented offset feature, ensuring that any cap wear during use is incorporated within the calibration process. The coating thickness gauge even informs the user when to replace the cap.

How to calibrate the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge in accordance with ISO 19840, for rough surfaces (or blast coated substrates), on ferrous substrates. Get the best performance from the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge and make the best use of the gauge’s ±1% accuracy by calibrating the coating thickness instrument to suit the application. The Elcometer 456 Dry Film Thickness Gauge can measure the thickness of a coating on smooth, and on rough or blast coated substrates; and there are a number of calibration methods for each substrate profile. When measuring on rough surfaces, if you have access to a sample of the uncoated substrate you will be measuring, then you should undertake a rough surface (or 2-point) calibration. However, if you don’t have access to the uncoated substrate, then you can use the Elcometer 456’s patented Zero Offset calibration method, which helps measure film thicknesses in accordance with ISO 19840. ISO 19840 simply states that if a blast profile is unknown, you should calibrate on smooth steel and then subtract a predefined correction value from the measurement taken on the coated surface. The Elcometer 456’s patented zero offset calibration automatically subtracts this correction value from the measurement, so you don’t have to. The Elcometer 456 is an intelligent gauge, so, once the gauge has been set to the Zero Offset Calibration, it will guide you through the calibration process, one step at a time.

How to calibrate the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge for smooth surfaces and rough surfaces, using the Auto calibration feature. Get the best performance from the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge and make the best use of the gauge’s ±1% accuracy by calibrating the coating thickness instrument to suit the application. The Elcometer 456 Dry Film Thickness Gauge can measure the thickness of a coating on smooth, and on rough or blast coated substrates; and there are a number of calibration methods for each substrate profile. If you are regularly measuring coatings that have been applied to the same target thickness, and on the same substrate material, then you can save time using the Elcometer 456’s Auto Calibration mode. Auto Calibration provides rapid, error-free, on-site calibration, by allowing you to enter the foil thickness values you regularly use to calibrate, once – so you don’t have to adjust the values manually every time you calibrate. Whether calibrating for use on smooth or on rough, blast coated surfaces; Auto Calibration can help save you time without compromising on accuracy. The Elcometer 456 is an intelligent gauge, so, once the gauge has been set to the Auto Calibration Method, it will guide you through the calibration process, one step at a time.
