Frequently Asked Questions - CSM 10 PCE Instruments
What is the measuring principle of the PCE CSM 10?
The PCE CSM 10 uses the magnetic induction principle, suitable for measuring non-magnetic coatings on ferrous substrates.
Can I measure coatings on non-ferrous metals?
No, the CSM 10 is designed only for ferrous substrates (e.g., steel). For non-ferrous, you would need an eddy current gauge.
How do I calibrate the device?
To calibrate, first perform a zero calibration on an uncoated ferrous plate, then use a calibration foil of known thickness to adjust the reading.
What is the measurement range and accuracy?
The range is 0 to 5000 µm (0–196 mils) with an accuracy of ±(2% of reading + 1 µm).
How long do the batteries last?
With standard AA alkaline batteries, the device provides approximately 50 hours of continuous use.
What units are available?
You can switch between micrometers (µm) and mils directly on the device.
Does the CSM 10 have data logging capabilities?
No, the basic model does not include data storage. For logging, consider the CSM 10 with Bluetooth option.
How do I clean and maintain the probe?
Gently wipe the probe tip with a soft, lint-free cloth after each measurement. Avoid abrasive materials.
What is the warranty period?
PCE Instruments typically offers a 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Check your local dealer for details.
Where can I purchase spare parts?
Spare parts such as batteries, calibration foils, and replacement probes are available from PCE Instruments or authorized distributors.
