Introduction Introduction
The PosiTector UTG is a hand-held Ultrasonic Thickness Gage
that uses the non-destructive ultrasonic pulse-echo principle to
measure the wall thickness of a wide variety of materials. It
consists of a body (Standard or Advanced) and probe (UTGC or
UTGM, see pg. 2).
This Quick Guide summarizes the basic functions of the instru-
ment. Download the full instruction manual at:

powers down after approximately 5 minutes of no activity. All
settings are retained.
