DUALSCOPE® MPOR
DUALSCOPE® MPOR-FP
Pocket Instruments with PC-Interface for Convenient and Fast Coating Thickness Measurement
on Virtually all Metals
Applications	Steel or iron substrates (Fe)		Nonferrous metal substrates (NFe)
Example	·       Zinc, chromium, copper, paint, varnish and plastic coatings on steel, iron or cast iron (Fe)		·         Paint, varnish or plastic coatings on aluminum, copper or brass
			·         Anodized coatings on aluminum
	The instruments are applicable for measurements both on smooth and rough surfaces
Models
·        DUALSCOPE MPOR: Probe integrated in the measuring instrument for single-handed operation
·        DUALSCOPE MPOR_FP: Probe with cable (80 cm; 31.5”) permanently connected to the instrument, for
measurements on various specimen shapes
Measurement Functions
Block size		Adjustable between 2 and 20 single readings per block
Tolerance limits		Adjustable, depending on the selected measuring mode
Offset value		In the standard mode, the freely adjustable offset value is deducted
		automatically from the measured value. Thus, one obtains the thickness
		of the top coating if for instance the interim coating is known.
Units of measurement		Selectable µm or mils/thou
Continuous display mode		Measurement in “continuous display mode” for continuous sampling of
		the surface, e.g., in the manufacture of tanks and containers.
Normalization		Adaptation to the substrate material and the shape of the specimen.
Calibration		Factory calibration
		Each individual instrument is factory calibrated at several reference
		points with the greatest care to ensure the highest possible degree of
		trueness.
		Corrective calibration (Adjustment)
		Adaptation to the substrate material and the shape of the specimen
		and to a thickness value using a calibration foil
General Features
Measuring method		Magnetic induction method (ISO 2178, ASTM D7091, Measurement of
		non-magnetic coatings on magnetic substrates);
		Eddy current method (ISO 2360, ASTM D7091, Measurement of non-
		conductive coatings on non-magnetic substrate metals);
		Automatic selection of the measuring method corresponding to the
		substrate material
Probe		Probe tip radius: 2 mm (78 mils); probe tip material: hard metal
Data memory		Max. 10,000 individual readings; the contents of the memory is retained
		even without batteries
Measuring frequency		More than 70 measurements per minute
Measurement acquisition		Automatic upon placement of the probe; indication of the measurement
		with a beep visually with a green lit LED
Display limit value violation		Acoustically through 2 short beeps and visually with a red lit LED
Display		·      Graphic display with an automatically turning display in order to read
		the measurement results in many different instrument positions
		·      LCD display on the top side of the instrument, e.g., for measurement overhead
Languages		Many different display languages are selectable: German, English and several
		other European and Asian languages
USB port		2.0 compatible, for connecting a PC
Data transfer		Single readings, mean values, group separator
Admissible ambient temperature range during operation		0 +40๐C (32 +104๐F)
Weight (incl. batteries)		MPOR: 137 g (4.8 oz)
