Introduction
The 6000 hand-held, electronic Gage
non-destructively measures the thickness
of coatings on metals, quickly and
accurately.
While all 6000 Gages look the same and
behave in a similar fashion, each model
has specific abilities or features as
denoted by the model number (e.g. 6000
FNS3). The model number is engraved
on the back and the probe type is
displayed when the Gage is turned on.
Styles
Built-In Probe gages have a permanent,
built-in probe for easy, one-hand
operation. These probes are not
interchangeable.
Separate Probe gages have the probe
mounted at the end of a 4 ft. (1.2m) cable
and have an “S” suffix in the model
number. They allow greater accessibility
onto small parts or into hard-to-reach
areas. These completely interchangeable
probes retain their own unique calibration
information. On power-up the 6000
automatically determines what type of
probe is attached, then performs an
automatic self-check. It is important to pull
only on the probe connector when
changing probes. Do not pull on the
probe cable.
