I.LS221 Coating Thickness Gauge Introduction
LS221 coating thickness gauge is also called coating thickness meter and paint thickness meter. It is a professional instrument for measuring the thickness of metal surface coatings. The host and the probe adopt a separate design, which is convenient for viewing data while testing under complex test conditions. It can be used in the laboratory and engineering field.
● There are only four types of ferromagnetic metal elements at room temperature: iron, cobalt, nickel, and thorium.
● Common non-ferromagnetic metals: copper, aluminum, magnesium, zinc, chromium, etc.
● Hall effect: can be used for the measurement of non-ferromagnetic coatings on ferromagnetic metal substrates.
● Eddy current: can be used for the measurement of non-conductive coatings on non-magnetic metal substrates.

IV. LS221 Coating Thickness Gauge Characteristics
1．The LS221 coating thickness gauge adopt two measurement principles and can identify the substrate automatically. Measurement can be completed in 0.5 seconds.
Two measurement modes of LS221 paint thickness gauge
2．Advanced digital probe technology can keep the zero position stable without drift and frequent zero adjustment.
3．Small size for carrying around.
4．Advanced technology solves the linearity problem of the LS221 coating thickness gauge. No calibration is required just simple zero adjustment to ensure the measurement accuracy.
