6.1. බලය සක්රිය / අක්රිය කරන්න
- To power on: Press and hold the 'AUTO OFF' button.
- To power off: The device will automatically shut down after a period of inactivity to conserve battery. You can also manually power off by pressing and holding the 'AUTO OFF' button.
6.2. ඒකක මාරු කිරීම
Press the 'um/mm/mils' button to cycle through the measurement units: micrometers (μm), millimeters (mm), and mils.
6.3. Measurement Modes (Probe Mode)
The LC-100 automatically detects the substrate type (magnetic or non-magnetic). The display will show 'Fe' for magnetic substrates (e.g., steel, iron) and 'NFE' for non-magnetic substrates (e.g., aluminum, copper).
- ස්වයංක්රීය මාදිලිය: The gauge automatically identifies the substrate material (Fe or NFE) and selects the appropriate measurement method. This is the default and recommended mode for general use.
- F Mode (Magnetic Induction): Used for measuring non-magnetic coatings on magnetic metal substrates (e.g., paint on steel).
- NFE Mode (Eddy Current): Used for measuring non-conductive coatings on non-magnetic metal substrates (e.g., paint on aluminum).
To manually switch between modes, press the 'AUTO F/NF' button.
6.4. මිනුම් ගැනීම
- Ensure the device is powered on and the desired unit is selected.
- Place the probe firmly and perpendicularly onto the coated surface you wish to measure.
- The measurement reading will appear on the display.
- Lift the probe from the surface to take another measurement.
6.5. Statistical Display
The gauge can display statistical data from multiple readings. Use the dedicated button (often combined with zero calibration or mode switch, refer to the display diagram) to cycle through Average, Minimum, Maximum, and Number of readings (NUM).
To clear statistical data, press the 'Clear Statistics' button (indicated on the diagram).
7 ක්රමාංකනය
Regular calibration ensures the accuracy of your thickness gauge. The LC-100 supports both zero calibration and multi-point calibration.
7.1. ශුන්ය ක්රමාංකනය
Zero calibration is performed on an uncoated metal substrate to establish a baseline.
- Ensure the gauge is in the correct mode (Fe or NFE) for the substrate you are calibrating.
- Place the probe firmly on the bare, uncoated metal substrate (e.g., the provided standard aluminum base or a known bare metal surface).
- Press the 'ZERO CAL' button. The display should show '0.00' or a value very close to zero.
- If the reading is not zero, repeat the process.
7.2. Multi-Point Calibration
Multi-point calibration uses calibration sheets of known thicknesses to ensure accuracy across the measurement range.
- Perform a zero calibration first (as described above).
- Select a calibration sheet (e.g., 0.05mm). Place it on the bare metal substrate.
- Place the probe firmly on the calibration sheet.
- Adjust the reading using the appropriate buttons (refer to the device's specific interface, usually 'up'/'down' or 'CAL' button with subsequent adjustments) until it matches the known thickness of the calibration sheet.
- Repeat this process for several other calibration sheets (e.g., 0.25mm, 0.50mm, 1.00mm, 2.00mm) to ensure accuracy across the range.
Always calibrate the device before critical measurements or if you suspect inaccuracies.

10 පරිශීලක ඉඟි
- For consistent readings, always place the probe perpendicularly to the surface and apply gentle, even pressure.
- When measuring curved surfaces, take multiple readings at different points to ensure accuracy.
- Avoid taking measurements on dirty, rusty, or uneven surfaces, as this can affect accuracy.
- Keep the calibration sheets in good condition and store them properly to ensure they remain accurate for future calibrations.
- If measuring multiple vehicles or different types of metal, it's good practice to perform a quick zero calibration on a known bare metal surface before starting.
