Kett introduces the 330 line of coating thickness testers, the first economical hand-held units that non-destructively measure applications in the powder coating, plating, and surface finishing industries. These units are accurate to +/- 2%, dependable, and versatile.

The LE-330 uses the electromagnetic principle for measuring non-magnetic coatings on non-ferrous substrates, while the LH-330 uses the eddy current principle for measuring non-conductive coatings on non-ferrous substrates. The LZ-330 has both technologies, enabling the unit to measure both non-magnetic coatings on ferrous substrates, and non-conductive coatings on non-ferrous substrates.

The 330 line has built in statistical analysis, which includes average, standard deviation, minimum, and maximum values. Additionally, each model can store up to 99 readings in non-volatile memory, for later use. These measurements can be dated, and stored based on multiple lot numbers.

Each model has multiple calibration storage, increasing the versatility and simplicity of this unit. Both the LE and the LH models can store four calibrations, while the LZ model stores four calibrations for ferrous substrates, and four for non-ferrous substrates.

The 330 units have high/low alarms to further facilitate the measurement process. Optional printers allow for hard-copies of the information collected by the unit to be saved.

"The 330 line simplifies the measurement process for anyone concerned with the coating thicknesses, said John Bogart, Sales Manager for Kett U.S.. "The standard features in this line will improve the efficiency of the measurement process, and satisfy the most stringent demands of its users."

Other lines available include the 200 line, which has statistics, multiple calibration storage, memory, high/low alarms, and a built-in printer, and the 900 line. All models are backed by a three-year manufacturer's warranty.

Forty years of research and development have made Kett a worldwide industry leader in the manufacture of testing equipment. Other products include NIR moisture meters, IR moisture balances, wood and agricultural moisture meters, and surface property analyzers.

Kett products are distributed in the Western Hemisphere by Kett U.S.. For additional information, please contact Kett U.S. at (800)638-8739 (U.S.) or 714-630-5169.
