Non Ferrous Metal Mode (NFe)
(Typical Applications) |
Technology - Eddy Current - (enables measurement of
non-conductive coatings on non-ferrous substrates
such as Aluminium, Copper, Brass, Zinc, Tin, and Non-
Magnetic Stainless Steel). Example coatings:- Paint,
Enamel, Rubber, Paint, Varnish, Powder Coating,
Anodizing, Plastic etc. |

Units of Measurement
(Microns & Mils) |
Metric Measurement:-
Micrometre (µm) – also known as Micron
1 µm = 1/1000mm
Imperial Measurement:-
Mil – also known as Thou
1 Mil = 1/1000 Inch
Conversion:-
1 Mil / Thou = 25.4 Microns / Micrometre (µm) |
| Additional Functionality |
Gauge auto adjusts between Ferrous (Steel) and Non-
Ferrous (Aluminium etc) Modes, Low Battery Indicator,
Ice Blue Backlight, Metric (Microns µm) or Imperial (Mils)
measurement settings, Auto Power Off, Easy Reset to
Factory Settings. |
