Technical Comparison of 4 PosiTector200 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges

When it comes to ultrasonic Thickness Gauges, we will inevitably talk about Defelsko in the United States, which is called "Diffelsko" in Chinese. PosiTector200 series ultrasonic Thickness Gauges and PosiTector6000 series coating Thickness Gauges produced by Defelsko have become frequent customers in Chinese testing laboratories.

In this issue, we mainly make a technical comparison of the four ultrasonic Thickness Gauges in the PosiTector200 series, in order to make users more clear about how to choose a suitable ultrasonic Thickness Gauge.

4 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge

The following table 1 lists the full series of PosiTector ultrasonic coating Thickness Gauges, which are developed and produced by Defelsko in the United States. PosiTector series Thickness Gauges have a good reputation at home and abroad. The following four are all ultrasonic:

B Standard 200B1-E	B Advanced 200B3-E	C Standard 200C1-E	C Advanced 200C3-E

technical comparison

Std is the abbreviation of Standard, which means standard type, and Adv is the abbreviation of Advanced, which means advanced type. List whether the PosiTector series of ultrasonic Thickness Gauges can measure the overall total thickness, whether they can measure multiple coatings at the same time, and whether they have chart functions.

The similarities and differences of the four Thickness Gauges of PosiTector200 series

In contrast, PosiTector200 series ultrasonic Thickness Gauges have several similarities and several differences:

Similar points of PosiTector200 series ultrasonic Thickness Gauge

(1) All four Thickness Gauges use ultrasonic principle to measure thickness

(2) Advanced Thickness Gauges can measure multiple coatings and also have chart functions

(3) The measurement accuracy of the four Thickness Gauges is the same

Differences of PosiTector200 series ultrasonic Thickness Gauge

(1) Type B Thickness Gauge is mainly used to measure the thickness of polymer coating on plastic, wood and other substrates; Type C can measure glass fiber, concrete, etc.;

(2) The measurement range of type B Thickness Gauge is different from that of type C, please refer to the table for details

(3) Type B adopts STDA3 standard film; Type C adopts STDP6
