Elcometer 456 T456CF3S Straight Probe, Iron Based

Introduction

Iron-based probes measure the thickness of non-magnetic coatings on ferromagnetic substrates. The Elcometer 456 Iron-based instrument accepts any iron-based probe. Non-ferrous based probes measure the thickness of non-conductive coatings on non-ferrous metal substrates. The Elcometer 456 non-ferrous based instrument accepts any non-ferrous based probe. The dual-purpose FNF probe can be used for both ferrous and non-ferrous applications and has the function of automatically identifying the matrix. The Elcometer 456 FNF category instrument accepts all ferrous, non-ferrous and dual purpose FNF probes.

Elcometer probes are available with a maximum operating temperature of 80°C (176°F) except for the split iron-based probe which is 150°C (300°F) and the high-temperature PINIP which is 250°C (480°F). The specified temperature is the substrate temperature and the probe duty cycle needs to be reduced to ensure a minimum temperature build-up within the probe.

All Elcometer probes come with a certificate of inspection and a set of calibration diaphragms suitable for the probe's scale range.

Elcometer 456 Probe Series

To meet customers' specific application requirements, all Elcometer 456 probes are fully interchangeable and available in a wide range of designs and calibration ranges.

Probe pictures	Probe name and application
	straight probe Coatings can be measured on flat and curved surfaces
	Micro probe Ideal for measuring edge coatings, coatings on narrow tubes or coatings on small surface areas
	Right angle probe For measuring inaccessible places
	PINIP™ probe Plug-in probe that converts a separate instrument into an integral instrument
	Distal probe The right-angle probe can be extended to reach places that are difficult to reach with ordinary probes
	scanning probe These probes are equipped with replaceable probe covers - users can take single readings or scan large surface areas without damaging the probe
	Waterproof probe Closed design, used in deep water, even wearing diving gloves will not affect the use
	High temperature probe Can be used on coatings at temperatures up to 250°C (480°F)
	Anodizing probe Resistant to chemical solvents and ideal for use in anodizing environments
	Armored probe Probes feature heavy-duty metal-reinforced cables to reduce risk of cable damage
	Soft coated probe Large area surface probe for testing soft covering materials (HVCA certified)
	Professional probe These probes can be used for measurements on specialized substrates such as graphite or electroplated components.
