      Measurement Modes

      Interface Echo (IE); The total thickness from the top of any coating through to the material density boundary (typically the back-wall) is measured. Suitable for measurement of materials between 1.65mm and 25.4mm (0.065” to 1”) thick.

      Echo Echo (EE); ideal for measuring thin materials, the material thickness from the top surface of the material to the material density boundary (typically the backwall) is measured. Suitable for measurement of materials between 0.15mm and 10.15mm (0.006” to 0.4”) thick.


      Plastic Mode (PLAS); specifically used for measuring very thin plastics between 0.15mm and 5mm (0.006” to 0.197”) thick. A graphite delay line is required when using this mode.

      User Definable Upper and Lower Limits

      The Dakota PCX8-DL Precision Thickness Gauge has user definable upper and lower limits with audible and visual pass/fail warnings allowing the user to compare readings to predefined values. The Dakota PCX8-DL Precision Thickness Gauge can store up to 40 pre-programmed limits which can be set for individual readings or for each batch.

      If a measurement is taken which falls outside set limits, the reading value and the limit icon turn red, the red LED flashes and the alarm beeps providing immediate indication of problem areas.

      Calibration Options

      The Dakota PCX8-DL Precision Thickness Gauge has a number of calibration options including the 1-Point & 2-Point method and Velocity. Alternatively, the user can select one of 39 pre-set materials stored within the gauge including; aluminium, steel, stainless steel, cast iron, plexiglass, PVC, polystyrene and polyurethane.

      The Dakota PCX8-DL Precision Thickness Gauge allows users to store into memory up to three calibrations. Once saved the user can select a calibration without the need to re-calibrate the gauge. Using the gauge’s alpha-numeric function, calibration memories can be re-named to suit the calibration setting.
