automatically attempts a measurement using the
eddy current principle. If the coating is non-
conductive over metal, a reading is displayed with
the letter "N".
Non-Ferrous Lock
(Option appears on FN Combination models only)
Select
N Lock when operating regularly on non-
ferrous substrates. The probe will only use the eddy
current principle when measuring. This shortens
measurement time and extends battery life.
N Lock is also useful in instances such as measuring
coatings on plated steel.

Operating range: +32° to +120°F (0 to +50°C)
The PosiTector 6000 compensates automatically
for temperature. Allow a few minutes for the probe to
reach ambient temperature before measuring.
Discard the first measurement taken in a notably
different temperature condition. When measuring
surfaces much hotter or colder than ambient, lift the
probe at least 6 inches (15cm) and allow 1 second
off the surface between measurements.
TIP: Ferrous substrates with extreme temperatures
between -150°F and +450°F (-100°C and +230°C)
can be measured with the PosiPen B. It is ideally
suited for measuring on small, hot or hard-to-reach
surfaces.
