    The Dakota Ultrasonics ZX-6 Through-Paint Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Z-305-0001 / Z-305-0003 accurately measures wall thickness and the extent of corrosion of all metals, ceramics, glass and most rigid plastics - from only one side!When operated in E-E Mode (Thru-Paint Mode), the coating is eliminated from the reading and the gauge will display only the thickness of the metal wall.

    The Dakota Ultrasonics ZX-6 Through-Paint Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Z-305-0001 / Z-305-0003 Features include Automatic or Manual Probe Zero maximizing accuracy, 5-position Gain Adjustment to help located the correct backwall echo and to penetrate the walls on sound-attenuating materials such as cast metals and thick materials. It also features Differential mode, Hi-Low Alarms with audible and visual indicators and Scan mode that captures the minimum thickness at 100 measurements per second (100 Hz). It also includes a special Velocity Mode to measure in terms of velocity for nodularity testing.

    The Dakota Ultrasonics ZX-6 Through-Paint Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Z-305-0001 / Z-305-0003 can be used in a Single Thickness Reading mode or in a Scan mode , where the probe is dragged over a large measuring area. The minimum thickness reading recorded during the "scan" will be displayed.

    The gauge and probe have a protection rating of IP67, is impact-resistant and environmentally sealed to provide trouble-free operation under the toughest field conditions. The Dakota Ultrasonics ZX-6 Through-Paint Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Z-305-0001 / Z-305-0003 is covered by a 5-Year Limited Warranty, CE-certified and is proudly Made in the USA.

    The Dakota Ultrasonics ZX-6 Through-Paint Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Z-305-0001 / Z-305-0003 can be used with any of the following hi-damped dual-element transducers specifically designed for use when employing the E-E Thru-Paint Mode. Probes possibilities include:
