CMI255 & CMI257 Metal finishing

Product catalog summary
Overview: The CMI255 and CMI257 are advanced coating thickness gauges designed for measuring protective and decorative coatings on ferrous and non-ferrous metal substrates. They are suitable for use by paint and powder coaters, electroplaters, galvanizers, coating inspectors, and automotive and aerospace finishers.
Key Features:
  • Dual technology for high reliability testing.
  • On-board statistics for measurement review.
  • Automatic substrate detection and factory calibration.
  • Integrated or tethered probe configurations.
  • IP52 protection against dust and water.
Specifications:
  • Body dimensions: 110 x 50 x 25 mm (4.3 x 2 x 1 in).
  • Probe dimensions: 24 x 47 mm (1 x 1.8 in).
  • Weight: CMI255 - 90 g (3.2 oz), CMI257 - 140 g (5.0 oz).
  • Battery: 2 x AAA.
  • Minimum sample dimensions: Convex radius - 5 mm, Concave radius - 50 mm, Clearance - CMI255: 125 mm, CMI257: 50 mm, Measurement area - 10 x 10 mm.
Measurement Techniques:
  • Magnetic induction for non-magnetic coatings over ferrous metals.
  • Eddy current for non-conductive coatings over non-ferrous metals.
Conforms to standards such as ASTM D7091, B499, B530, DIN EN ISO 2178 for magnetic induction, and ASTM B244, B529, DIN EN ISO 2360 for eddy current.

With on-board statistics to review a series of measurements and the ability to account for variations in substrate materials, our CMI255 and CMI257 are superior quality assurance and inspection tools for: | Paint & powder coaters. | Electroplaters. | Galvanizers. | Coating inspectors. | Automotive and aerospace finishers. These compact, handheld gauges are factory calibrated and automatically select the best measurement technique for the base material. The gauges are durably designed, include a rubberized cover and meet IP52 environmental protection standards to withstand use in harsh conditions. The CMI255 features an integrated probe for single-handed operation. The CMI257 features a tethered probe for taking measurements on locations that are more difficult to reach. KEY FEATURES | On-board statistics. | Base re-zero function. | Factory calibrated. | Automatic substrate detection. | Integrated or external probe configuration. | IP52 protection against dust and water. RELIABLE NON-DESTRUCTIVE ANALYSIS We have been providing coating thickness products for the metal finishing industry for over 40 years.
