1 .0 I N T RODU CT I ON N OT ES The Electromatic Model TI-007 is a precision Ultrasonic Micrometer. Based on the same operating principles as sonar, the TI-007 is capable of measuring the thickness of various materials with accuracy as high as ± 0.0001 inches, or ± 0.001 millimeters. The principle advantage of ultrasonic measurement over traditional methods is that ultrasonic measurements can be performed with access to only one side of the material being measured.

The ALRM key has two functions. By holding down the ALRM key when powering up the TI-007, the audible beeper will be turned on or off accordingly. After the unit has been turned on, pressing the ALRM key will toggle the alarm mode to the on/off positions and allow the user to enter a nominal thickness value. Refer to page 8 for details on how to use the alarm feature.

6 .0 APPEN DI X B — APPLI CAT I ON N OT ES Measuring tubing When measuring a piece of tubing for wall thickness, it may prove beneficial to have multiple delay lines with different radiuses for different tubing diameters. The delay lines can be easily radiused by placing a piece of emery cloth around the tubing and moving the transducer back and forth until a radius has formed on the tip of the delay line. Measuring hot surfaces The velocity of sound through a substance is dependant upon its temperature.

IMPORTANT 5 .0 APPEN DI X A — PRODU CT SPECI FI CAT I ON S Occasionally, a small film of couplant will be drawn out between the transducer and the surface as the transducer is removed. When this happens, the TI-007 may perform a measurement through this couplant film, resulting in a measurement that is larger or smaller than it should be. This phenomenon is obvious when one thickness value is observed while the transducer is in place, and another is observed after the transducer is removed.

T RAN SDU CER SELECT I ON The TI-007 is inherently capable of performing measurements on a wide range of materials, from various metals to glass and plastics. Different types of material, however, will require the use of different transducers. Choosing the correct transducer for a job is critical to being able to easily perform accurate and reliable measurements.

Scan Mode While the TI-007 excels at making single point measurements, it is sometimes desirable to examine a larger region, searching for the thinnest point. The TI-007 includes a feature, called Scan Mode, which allows it to do just that. 6. The TI-007 is now ready to perform measurements using the Alarm feature.
