Basic handheld instruments for non-destructive coating thickness measurement on virtually all metals
Fischer FMP10, FMP20, FMP30, and FMP40 Handheld Instruments
The portable FMP10, FMP20, FMP30 & FMP40 represent precise measurement technology and are ideal for samples and control measurements. These user-friendly and sturdy instruments can be adapted to requirements of coating thickness measurement using interchangeable measuring probes. The most significant values are displayed and can be stored together with the calibration results in the instrument, ensuring quick and reliable operation.

Measurement method
Magnetic induction method (DIN EN ISO 2178, ASTM D7091)
Eddy current method and magnetic induction method (DIN EN ISO 2360 and 2178)
Eddy current method (DIN EN ISO 2360, ASTM D7091)
Instrument Types: Deltascope FMP10 & FMP30 For the measurement of ferrous base materials (F), e.g. paint, lacquer, powder coating, chrome, copper, zinc, as well as enamel or plastic coatings on steel and iron. Isoscope FMP10 & FMP30 For the measurement of paint, powder coating, lacquer or plastic coatings on non-ferromagnetic metal base materials (F) or anodic coatings on aluminum and electrically conducted coatings on non-conducting carrier materials. Dualscope FMP20 & FMP40 Due to automatic base material recognition and the integration fo both measurement methods, these universal instruments are capable of measuring coatings on steel and iron (F) and on non-ferromagnetic metals (NF). Duplex coatings (lacquer / zinc) on steel can be measured simultaneously with the values of the lacquer and zinc coatings displayed individually.
Features of FMP10 and FMP20:
Non-destructive coating thickness measurement according to the magnetic induction and / or eddy current methods.
