7. se e If the meter is exposed to significant changes in ambient temperature allow 30 minutes for temperature stabiliza tion before taking measurement e Condensation may form on the sensor when going from cold to hot environment Wait for 10 minutes for condensation to dissipate before taking measurements e This unit is not constructed to waterproof and dustproof Do not use it in a wet or very dusty environment e In order to take accurate meas urement make sure the sensing tip contacts the coated surface tightly without tilting Please make sure there is no air bubbles between substrate and coating e Substrate Zeroing Calibration Must be implemented for each use e Two point calibration Must implement for frequent testing points to increase measuring accuracy e The enclosed zeroing plates are only suitable for the use of calibration of coating thickness meter itself Apart from that the meter should be performed two point cal ibration methods to get accurate readings before use The zeroing on specific material substrate still needs to be done before taking formal measurements such as Iron Steel Bronze Copper Nickel Zinc and SUS304 and so on which is to avoid the measuring errors that cause by the difference of individual substrates The end users can get much more accurate measuring readings on the specific metal under test by doing two calibration methods WARNING ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD IN
