Easily measure workpieces or other items with this height gauge featuring excellent 1200-hour battery life and a large LCD. In addition, this height gauge can measure height, height difference (step), inside/outside width and diameters, circle pitch, free-form surface maximum/minimum heights, and height difference through scanning.

Features

  • Best-in-class accuracy
  • Measures height, height difference (step), inside/outside widths, inside/outside diameters, circle pitch, free-form surface maximum/minimum heights and height difference by scanning measurement
  • SPC capability and USB data port provides the option of data output for real-time measurement analysis
  • Two sub-display modes display the value from the previous measurements or the value from the zero/origin point
  • Simple-to-use control panel enables most measurements to be made with a single keystroke
  • Battery life of 1200 hours in continuous use with four AA batteries, an improvement from 300 hours
  • The electromagnetic induction type ABSOLUTE encoder maintains the origin
  • SPC capability and USB data port provides the option of data output for real-time measurement analysis
  • ABSOLUTE (ABS) linear scale eliminates the need for setting the origin point every time the micrometer is powered on; overspeed errors are also eliminated
  • Travel is performed with a slider elevation knob while a wheel is used for measurements
  • Large, back-lit LCD screen features easy reference icon keys for better usability
  • Roller bearing guiding method provides smooth movements
  • Operates using an AC adapter and rechargeable Ni-MH battery

GO/±NG judgment by LED and display symbols

LEDs indicate tolerance judgment status – green for GO, red for +NG, and orange for -NG. Status is also indicated by corresponding symbols appearing on the display.

Intuitive buttons and layout

The symbols are for frequently used keys. Cross-keys provide better operability.

Inside/outside diameters, maximum/minimum heights and displacement can be measured using a standard probe

Besides height measurement, proprietary mechanism and firmware enables scanning measurement of inside/outside diameters, maximum/minimum heights, and height differences

ABSOLUTE encoder maintains the origin

The electromagnetic induction type ABSOLUTE encoder maintains the origin. There is no need to set the origin after turning on the power.

D2 digimatic and USB outputs

Digimatic and USB ports are provided as standard. Using the U-WAVE-T measurement data wireless communication system enables instant transmission of measurement data to a PC via wireless communication which reduces manual input errors and improves data reliability and operational efficiency.

Power supply

  • Four alkaline AA/LR6 batteries (standard accessories)
  • Also operates on four NiMH AA rechargeable batteries
  • 1200 hours of battery life in continuous use

Probe elevation wheel

Used for measurement, allowing fine or coarse adjustment of probe height

Air-suspension feature

Pressing a button on the grip activates the internal air pump. The base rises on a cushion of air and is able to be moved smoothly over the surface plate.

Applications

  • Aerospace
  • Automotive
  • Defense
  • Electronics
  • Energy
  • General manufacturing
  • Plastics and rubber
