ALTANA Byko-Test 1200 User Manual

General:
The byko-test1200 measures all non.magnetic coatings such as lacquer, paint, plastics, enamel, chromium, cop­per, zinc, etc. on steel and iron (Fe).
Adjustment:
A zero-adjustment is required when using the gauge for the first time or working with different materials, after in­serting a new battery, or from time to time.
The gauge is delivered with a red protection ring around the probe for better positioning and protection. This ring can easily be removed by slightly turning and pulling. In case of bent surfaces remove the protection ring in order to achieve accurate measurements.
Measurement:
Place the byko-test1200 with its ring around the probe plane on the object to be measured. Please make sure that the circular probe ring is evenly placed on the sur­face. On even objects, the two rear supporting points will help to position the gauge. The measured value is im­mediately indicated on the display accompanied by a "beep". The display shows "Err" if the byko-test1200 is placed incorrectly, and "Infi" if the measurement is out of range. The gauge turns on automatically and switches off after approx. 10 seconds if it is not used.
When measuring on rods align the "V"-groove in the ring of the probe with the axis of the rod.
Note: Please do not take measurements on magnetized parts !
Converting from mil to µm and µm to mil:
In order to convert the displayed values from the mils­mode to the µm-mode or vice versa, lift off the gauge and push both slides on the sides of the byko-test1200. The display will then convert the values accordingly.
Battery:
The gauge is powered by a 9V alkaline battery. The bat­tery is located at the rear end of the gauge. If the blinking sign "BAT" appears on the display, it is advisable to change the battery.
Possible messages :
Err: incorrect use Infi: wrong substrate (e.g. Aluminium, wood )
or measurement out of range
BAT: battery is getting weak, please exchange
