To disconnect a probe from a body, power-down the
instrument and slide the plastic probe connector
horizontally (in the direction of the arrow) away from the
body. Reverse these steps to attach a new probe.
When powered-up the PosiTector automatically
determines what type of probe is attached and does a
self-check.
Additionally, the PosiTector accepts a number of probe types
including magnetic and eddy current coating thickness, surface
profile, environmental and ultrasonic wall thickness probes.

Calibration, Verification, and Adjustment
Calibration, Verification, and Adjustment
The PosiTector 6000 non-destructively measures the thickness of
coatings on metals.Three steps ensure best accuracy...
1. Calibration: typically done by the manufacturer or qualified lab.
All probes include a Certificate of Calibration.
2. Verification of Accuracy: as done by the user on known
reference standards such as the included plastic shims or
optional coated thickness standards.
3. Adjustment: Adjustment, or Cal Adjustment is the act of
aligning the Gage's thickness readings to match that of a known
sample in order to improve the effectiveness of the Gage on a
specific surface or in a specific portion of its measurement
range. 1-point or 2-point Cal adjustments are possible.
