TI-CMXDLP
Data-Logging Ultrasonic Coating & Wall Thickness Gauge

The new CHECKLINE® TI-CMXDLP is the top-of-the-line model in the CMX Series of Gauges that measures both coating and wall thickness quickly and accurately—from only one side. In addition, when switched to Pulse-Echo mode, the TI-CMXDLP automatically measures and eliminates the coating from the wall thickness measurement, enabling the user to locate the finest corrosion and pitting—without removing the coating.

It features an A-Scan Display Mode allowing the user to see the actual wave form echoes, graphically, providing the insight necessary to tune the settings on the gauge for optimal performance. This is especially important on challenging measurement tasks. The TI-CMXDLP also features a new E-EV Operating Mode ("Echo-Echo-Verify"), also known as Triple-Echo Mode, which provides addition assurance that the displayed measurement is accurate and fully verified by subsequent echoes.

Oversized graphic LCD is backlit and features easy to read fonts, graphics and display codes showing all critical settings including Velocity, Operating Mode, Alarms, Scan Mode and more. The backlight can be set to ON (always-on), OFF (always-off) or AUTO (automatically-on when measuring).

Five user-selected operating modes are included:

Coating On: Measures wall thickness using Pulse-Echo. It separately displays wall & coating thickness.

Coating Off: Measures wall thickness using Pulse-Echo. It displays wall thickness only.

Temperature Compensated: Measures wall thickness using Pulse-Echo and automatically adjusts calibration to compensate for changes in material temperature.

Thru-Coat: Measures wall thickness only using Echo-Echo. (coating is NOT included)

Coating Only Mode (CT): (Coating Thickness) Measures from 0.0005 to 0.100 inches (0.013 to 2.540 mm). Range will vary slightly depending on the coating.

Special Features of TI-CMXDLP Data-Logger

Auto probe recognition with Auto Zero or Manual Zero.

Wide variety of dual-element probes can be used for nearly any application.

Bar graph with user-set start end values providing highest resolution around the target thickness value.

Differential Mode allows user to set a "target thickness value" and display will show the DIFFERENCE between actual and target thickness as a plus or minus value.

Includes NIST-Traceable Calibration.

CE Certified.

Adjustable Gain in 5 steps (VLow, Low, Med, Hi & VHi) in 2db increments providing a 8 db gain adjust range (42–50 db).

64 custom setups can be stored and retrieved for convenient use and labeled for easy identification

Display Hi/Lo Alarm Limits with audible and visual indicators.

2 Year Warranty

Metal housing provides strong protection against harsh environments.

Measures Coatings up to 0.100"

Hi-Speed Scan Mode	B-Scan Mode

Scan Mode measures 64 times per second, displaying the max and min reading measured during the scan interval. Sample rate is 200/sec when coating measurement is off.	The B-Scan displays a time based cross section view of test material of the contour of the blind, or underside of a pipe or tank application. the B-Scan view draws at a rate of seven seconds per screen from right to left.
