8.2 TAKING A READING
1
Apply a small amount of couplant to the test surface.
2
Press the transducer into the couplant, making sure it is flat
against the surface.
Moderate pressure on the top of the transducer using the thumb or index
finger is sufficient; it is only necessary to keep the transducer stationary
and seated flat against the surface of the material.
3
The display will show a value which is constantly updating. The
gauge will take 4 readings per second when the transducer is
in contact with the surface of the material.
The stability of the reading is indicated on the stability bar to the right of
the display. A valid reading has a stability of 5 or more. If the stability
indicator has fewer than 5 bars showing or the numbers on the display
seem erratic, make sure there is an adequate film of couplant beneath the
transducer, and that the transducer is seated flat against the material. If
the condition persists, it may be necessary to select a different transducer
(size or frequency) for the material being measured.
4
The last reading is held on screen when the transducer is
removed from the surface.
