The new Elcometer 456 coating thickness gauge sets new standards in measuring the thickness of a coating

Ideal for assessment of protective coatings, also for aluminium and other non-magnetic metals. Its wide footprint facilitates single hand operation.

Each ELCOMETER 456 model offers further functionality to assure the success of your project. Our most advanced Model T features memory, alpha-numeric batching, and Bluetooth® communication.

Great for harsh environments, the Elcometer 456 is a heavy duty, impact resistant instrument,  with dust and water resistance equivalent to IP64. Storing up to 150,000 readings in 2,500 batches and to measuring up to 13mm (500mils) of coating, it is a perfect gauge for working on very large surfaces.

Pre-calibration included: You can start measuring on the stop, having selected the correct surface profile.
Easy to use: Minimal training required: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdlFDMHaXCw)
Results transferred via Bluetooth® or USB to ElcoMaster® or your software for instant report generation
Multiple languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Chinese & Japanese
Built-in integral probe for reliable readings on flat or curved surface
Displays 3 individual readings and their average in microns or mils
Pre-calibrated with 4 profile ranges: Smooth 0-25µm 0-1mil Fine 25-60µm 1-2mils Medium 60-100µm 2-3mils Coarse >100µm 3-4mils

Elcometer 456 calibration

As the gauge is factory calibrated, the calibration cannot be adjusted by the user and the gauge should be returned to Elcometer for re-calibration. The user can, however, verify the accuracy of the gauge calibration in the field using the ‘Test Calibration’ option. To test the calibration, press Cal/Test Calibration and follow the on-screen instructions. Just select the relevant surface profile and start measuring.

STANDARDS: ASTM D7091, ISO 2808, ISO 19840, SSPC PA-2, US Navy NSI 009-32.
Supplied with Test Certificate.

How to use Elcometer 456:

1. Whilst holding the gauge perpendicular, gently place the probe onto the surface.
· Do not drag the probe across the surface or bang the probe down hard onto the surface as this will damage the probe tip resulting in inaccurate readings.
· >1500µm’ (’>60mils’) indicates a reading over the probe range.

2. For subsequent readings, lift the probe off and then replace it on the coated surface.
· Do not allow the probe to hover over the surface as this could result in a false reading.

The first reading taken is displayed next to ‘1′, the second next to ‘2′ etc. When the third reading has been taken, the average (mean, xbar) of the three individual readings displayed is shown (X:).

The average (mean, xbar) reading is cleared when a fourth reading is taken.

By selecting ‘Send Individual Readings’ or ‘Send Mean (xbar) Reading’ via Menu/Bluetooth, the user can choose to transfer the individual readings or just the average (mean, xbar) reading values to ® ® ElcoMaster or ElcoMaster Mobile Apps – see Section 7 on page 7.
