More info

Our Starr Instruments TGD-100 Ultrasonic thickness gauge is an excellent all-rounder for thickness measurement. It represents fantastic value for money as it has all the features of thickness gauges that sell for more than double the price!

Think 2-point calibration for greater accuracy, low and high limit setting with alarm function, adjustable sensitivity (gain) for high attenuating materials, 5 user preset sound velocities for quick reference, internal memory for recording sets of data and more.

The TDG-100 has the capability to measure the thickness of any solid composition materials that have a regular grain structure of which an ultrasonic pulse can be transmitted through. This is done using the pulse-echo method with a twin crystal probe (transducer). Such materials include:

Metals (steels, aluminium, copper, cast iron and more)

Plastic

Glass

Rubber (most types)

and more.

User calibration check and adjustment is carried out with an integrated 4mm calibration block located on the front of the unit. For additional reference checking and lab certification, a step Wedge block is available for purchase separately.

SOUND VELOCITY IN COMMON MATERIALS:

PROBE OPTIONS

The standard supply is a 5MHz probe and this is recommended for a most metal applications. If you have different material type and thicknes, then the purchase of an additional probe may provide useful. Here are the different options available and common uses;

Mini Probe

Used for curved surfaces with a diameter of at least 15mm the smaller surface area of the probe allows for better coupling with the curved material being measured. This probe is also suitable for measuring thinner materials.

2MHz

The 2MHz probe is for high penetration. With a lower frequency and longer wavelength it is used to get readings on thicker samples and high attenuating material such as HDPE etc.

High Temperature

The high temperature probe features a standard 5MHz transducer wrapped in a thick teflon grip designed to allow for safe, comfortable use whilst testing materials that are hot, up to a temperature of to 300°C; such as process pipework and boilers.
