Bside CCT01 Digitales Schichtdickenmessgerät – Benutzerhandbuch

1. Produktüberschreitungview

The Bside CCT01 Digital Coating Thickness Gauge is designed for non-destructive, fast, and precise measurement of coating thickness. It operates based on either the magnetic induction principle (F probe) or the eddy current principle (N probe), depending on the substrate material. This device is equipped with both internal F and N probes.

The F probe is suitable for measuring non-magnetic coatings such as aluminum, chrome, copper, zinc, paint, varnish, enamel, and rubber on iron or steel substrates. It is also applicable to alloyed and hardened magnetic steel, but not austenitic steel.

The N probe is used for insulating coatings like paint, anodizing, and ceramics on all non-ferrous metals (e.g., aluminum, copper, zinc die casting, brass) and on austenitic stainless steels.

• Kalibrierung: Zero-point calibration and multi-point calibration (up to 4 points) for each group.
• Datenverwaltung: Ability to recall, delete specified readings, or delete entire group readings.
• Statistiken: Displays mean, minimum, maximum, and standard deviation of readings.
• Probe Modes: Auto, Magnetic (F), and Eddy Current (N) probe selection.
• Alarmfunktion: User-definable high or low limit alarms for each group.
• Energieverwaltung: Automatische Abschaltfunktion.
• Konnektivität: USB interface for data transmission to a computer.
• Indikatoren: Low battery and error indications.

3. Einrichtung

3.1 Einlegen der Batterie

1. Suchen Sie das Batteriefach auf der Rückseite des Geräts.
2. Using a small screwdriver, remove the screws securing the battery compartment cover.
3. Insert two 1.5V AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity as indicated inside the compartment.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and secure it with the screws.

3.2 Ein-/Ausschalten

• Zum Einschalten halten Sie die Leistung Taste.
• Das Gerät schaltet sich nach einer gewissen Zeit der Inaktivität automatisch aus, um die Batterielebensdauer zu verlängern.

4. Bedienungsanleitung

4.1 Messmodi

• Einzelmodus: For individual measurements. Press the probe onto the surface, read the value, then lift.
• Kontinuierlicher Modus: For scanning a surface. Keep the probe on the surface and slide it to take multiple readings.

4.2 Group Modes

• Direct (DIR) Group: Readings are displayed but not stored in memory. Data is lost when the device powers off.
• General (GEN) Group: Readings are automatically stored. Up to 80 readings can be stored for each of the four general groups. Each group maintains individual statistics, alarm limits, and calibration settings.

4.3 Kalibrierung

Accurate measurements require proper calibration. The device supports zero-point and multi-point calibration.

1. Nullpunktkalibrierung: Used to set the zero reference on an uncoated substrate.
2. Multi-Point Calibration (up to 4 points): For enhanced accuracy across the measurement range, using calibration foils of known thickness.

Refer to the on-screen menu for detailed calibration steps.

4.4 Probe Modes

The device can automatically detect the substrate type or be manually set.

• Automatikmodus: The gauge automatically selects between F (magnetic induction) and N (eddy current) probe principles.
• Magnetic Mode (F Probe): For non-magnetic coatings on ferrous substrates.
• Eddy Current Mode (N Probe): For insulating coatings on non-ferrous substrates.

4.5 Alarme einstellen

Users can set high and low alarm limits for each group. An alarm icon will be displayed on the LCD when a reading exceeds these limits.

4.6 Data Management and Statistics

Navigate through the menu to:

• Abrufen: View gespeicherten Messwerte.
• Löschen: Remove specific readings or clear an entire group.
• Browse Statistics: View calculated statistics including the number of readings, mean, minimum, maximum, and standard deviation for the current group.

5. Datenübermittlung

The Bside CCT01 features a USB interface for transferring measurement data to a computer. This allows for further analysis and record-keeping.

6. Wartung

6.1 Batteriewechsel

When the low battery indicator appears, replace the AAA batteries as described in Section 3.1. Always use fresh batteries for optimal performance.

6.2 Reinigung

Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Keep the probe tip clean and free of debris for accurate readings.

6.3 Speicherung

Store the device in its original packaging or a protective case when not in use. Avoid extreme temperatures and high humidity. If storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.

7. Fehlerbehebung

• Anzeige für niedrigen Batteriestand: If the low battery icon appears, replace the batteries immediately.
• Fehleranzeige: If an error message is displayed, refer to the device's on-screen help or power cycle the device. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
• Ungenaue Messwerte: Ensure the probe tip is clean, the device is properly calibrated, and the correct probe mode (F/N/Auto) is selected for the substrate.
