Using the Zero Calibration feature of the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge

When using the Elcometer 456 Dry Film Thickness Gauge to measure the thickness of a coating on smooth substrates, a quick and simple method of calibrating the gauge is the Zero, or single-point calibration method. Get the best performance from the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge and make the best use of the gauge’s ±1% accuracy by calibrating the coating thickness instrument to suit the application. The Elcometer 456 Dry Film Thickness Gauge can measure the thickness of a coating on smooth, and on rough or blast coated substrates; and there are a number of calibration methods for each substrate profile. When measuring on smooth surfaces, the Zero calibration method (single point calibration) is a simple method of adjusting your dry film thickness gauge for measuring coating thickness on smooth substrates. The Elcometer 456 is an intelligent gauge, so, once the gauge has been set to the Zero Calibration Method, it will guide you through the calibration process, one step at a time.
