Atec Panametrics-35DL - Manual (Page 3)

The 35 and 35DL can use transducers ranging from 2.25 to 30 MHz,
which means that these versatile gages can solve the majority of
thickness gaging applications, from very thin to very thick. In general,
transducers with higher frequencies and smaller diameters allow
measurements of thinner or curved parts and enhance the accuracy
of the measurement.
35 and 35DL
Models 35 and 35DL are used in the
majority of applications
Micrometers won’t work in this classic application.
Instead, the Model 35 with a M208 transducer makes
a thickness measurement up to a calibrated accuracy
of 0.001 mm (or 0.0001 inch) without breaking the
glass. The Model 35 with a delay line transducer or immer-
sion bubbler makes accurate thickness measurements
on both convex and concave surfaces of turbine
blades.
Plastic or metal tubes and pipes of various diameters
can easily be measured ultrasonically with contact
type transducers. Small diameters may require immer-
sion type measurements.
