calibration certificate and
Operating instruction manual
3.3 Probe
The probe transmits and receives the ultrasonic sound waves which
the TI-25DL uses to calculate the thickness of the material being
measured. The probe must be used correctly in order for the TI-25DL
to produce accurate and reliable results.
A small amount of “coupling” fluid, commonly called “couplant” is
used to insure that there are no air gaps between the probe and the
material surface. Grasp the probe by the knurled aluminum housing
and place it on top of the material surface. Apply moderate pressure
to the top surface of the probe with your thumb (A) or index finger
(B) to stabilize the probe and to keep the wearface seated flat against
the measurement surface.
