LZ330 Dual Coating Thickness Gauge

Dual-substrate coating thickness gauge for ferrous and non-ferrous work, no longer in production.

The LZ330 measured non-magnetic coatings on steel and insulating coatings on aluminum, copper, and brass from a single handheld unit, switching between electromagnetic and eddy current probes. It has been succeeded by the L600S, which carries the same dual capability with a larger color display, greater memory, and USB-C output.

  • No longer manufactured: The LZ330 has reached end of life. The L600S is its current production replacement.
  • Dual measurement: Electromagnetic and eddy current modes in one unit, covering both magnetic and non-magnetic substrates.
  • Field-ready memory: Eight application memories and storage for 2,180 measurements, with output to a printer or PC.

The Dual-Substrate Field Gauge That Set the Standard for the L600S

The LZ330 was Kett’s dual-mode coating thickness gauge for operators who measured across both magnetic and non-magnetic substrates without carrying two instruments. It is no longer manufactured. The information below is provided for owners of existing units and for buyers identifying the current replacement.

What the LZ330 Did

The LZ330 paired an electromagnetic probe for non-magnetic coatings on steel with an eddy current probe for insulating coatings on aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-magnetic metals. Operators selected the probe for the substrate in front of them and worked from one handheld unit.

  • Two substrates, one gauge: Electromagnetic mode for coatings on ferrous metals and eddy current mode for coatings on non-ferrous metals, covering plated, painted, and lined parts.
  • Measurement range: Up to 1,500 µm on ferrous substrates and 800 µm on non-ferrous, covering typical coating and plating work.
  • Eight application memories: Stored calibration curves for four ferrous and four non-ferrous applications, so a repeated job could be recalled without recalibrating.
  • On-board statistics and storage: Lot statistics with storage for 2,180 measurements and output to a printer or PC for record keeping.

Why the L600S Replaces It

The LZ330 followed the LZ300 series and was succeeded by the LZ370 and LZ373. The current production model for all of this work is the L600S. It keeps the dual-substrate measurement that defined the 330 and adds a wider measurement range, a 2.7 inch full color display, storage for 50,000 records, and USB-C output for modern data transfer.
