- Compact and Light Weight: With a weight of only 180g, the AD-3253 is easy to carry and easy to use. Its light weight allows hours of fatigue free operation.
- Easy to Operate: Simply calibrate the AD-3253 to the material to be tested, place the probe on the test material and the AD-3253 automatically
displays the correct thickness. No special qualifications or training are required.
- Easy to Read LCD Display: Displays both measured thickness and sonic velocity of the sample.
- Sonic Velocity Stored into Memory: Sonic velocities are easily entered into the AD-3253 unit through simple up and down keys. When a new entry is made, it replaces the previous entry and stores the new one until changed, even if the unit is powered off or the battery is changed.
- Low Battery Indicator: Low Battery appears when the battery is low, after which the operator has one hour of operation before battery replacement is required.
- Able to determine unknown Sonic Velocities: Simply calibrate the AD-3253 against a known test block and place the probe on the sample material of the same thickness. One button operation sets the unit to the proper thickness and the AD-3253 automatically enters the correct sonic velocity.
- Selectable Units of Measure: When performing thickness measurements, the operator is able to easily select between inches or millimeters units of measure.
- Automatic Power Off Function: The AD-3253 operates continuously for more than 30 hours off of one AA alkaline battery (25", 5 mm sample thickness) and,
automatically powers off the unit after 5 minutes of non-use, substantially extending operating life between battery changes.
