PaintChecker mobile LED Blue 591 gauge a photothermal measuring device used for the non contact and non destructive determination of coating thicknesses in accordance with DIN EN 15042-2. (metallic substrates), coating thickness ranges: 20-150 µm – powder, 50-250 µm – powder thk, 20-200 µm cured
Specially developed for the measurement of powder coatings before curing on various substrates such as steel, aluminum and ceramics.
Cured coatings can also be measured. The precise layer thickness measurement is geometry independent and therefore also possible on complex parts such as corners, edges or curved inner sides. The photothermal measuring method is an indirect measuring method which means that the measuring device does not measure coating thickness values directly, but that they are derived indirectly from the evaluation of the photothermal measurement signal.
The Sensor
The sensor made of extruded high-strength plastic is designed for manual handling and contains, in addition to eye-safe positioning LEDs (UV light), the measurement data recording. The fabricated cable that connects the sensor and the controller unit is 0.8 m in length.
With the ergonomic, lightweight sensor, measurements can be made directly by hand. With its optomechanical structure, the sensor can also be used in the immediate vicinity of the application.
The Controller-Unit
The controller-unit is contained in a rugged aluminum housing. All of the settings can be selected and modified conveniently with the membrane keypad using a context-related menu that is easy to understand. The USB connection is used for communicating with a PC. The software allows complete control over the measurement procedure and storage of measurement data. The measuring values are saved in measuring series for immediate or later use.
Accelerated weathering tester, UV aging test (UV radiation), moisture condensation. UV radiation is responsible for almost all the processes of photo degradation of durable materials exposed to the external environment. The fluorescent lamps used in the UV-BOX 636 simulate critical UV short waves and realistically reproduce the damage caused by sunlight. The types of damage that can be simulated with the UV-BOX are the following: color change, loss of gloss, chalking, cracking, cracks, blistering, veiling, brittleness, loss of strength and oxidation. Dew is mainly responsible for most of the moisture that occurs during outdoor exposure, much more than rain. The condensation system of the UV-BOX 636 realistically simulates dew and amplifies its effect through the use of high temperatures. The condensation process automatically purifies the network water used in the system. This is because the process of evaporation and condensation of water on samples is actually a distillation process, which allows to remove all impurities. UV-BOX can accommodate up to 48 standard samples (75 mm x 150 mm)¸it is possible to create special sample holders according to customer specifications. The operation is done via a modern touch screen panel. The UV lamps are not included in the delivery.
The accelerated UV aging test reproduces the damage caused by sunlight, rain and dew. In a few days or weeks of exposure of the samples inside the UV-BOX 636, damages occurring in months or years of outdoor exposure can be reproduced. Simulate aging due to external atmospheric agents, UV-BOX subjects the materials to alternating cycles of UV radiation and humidity at controlled high temperatures. The instrument simulates the effects of sunlight through the use of special UV fluorescent lamps and the simulation of the effect of dew and rain occurs through condensation or a spray of water (Spray option).
