FixedVelocityThicknessGaugesD A K O T A U L T R A S O N I C SS O U N D S O L U T I O N SMXSeriesMXSeriesFixedVelocityThicknessGaugesThe MX-2 is ideal for theperson that tests a few differentmaterials regularly. The MX-2 con-tains 8 velocities of commonmaterials and 2 velocities thatthe user can set using a simplesoftware program.The MX-1 and MX-2 arepackaged in all metal cases,sealed with gaskets to protectthem from harsh working envi-ronments. These gauges can gowhere you go, to do the work you do, saving you time and money, making fast accurate measure-ments.Dakota Ultrasonics offers quality gauges that are reliable, innova-tive and competitively priced - all backed by the longest warranty in the business—5 full years.The MX-1 and MX-2 are fixedvelocity gauges making themaffordable precision tools thatrequire no special training tooperate.The MX-1 will hold a singlevelocity, making it the perfect choice where one material is being tested day after day. With the preset velocity in the gauge, you simply turn on the gauge and you are ready to work. The velocity is set in the MX-1 with a simple software program that is suppliedwith the unit.M X - 1 & M X - 2 T H I C K N E S S G A U G E SPhysicalWeight:10 ounces (with batteries).Size:2.5 W x 4.5 H x 1.24 D inches(63.5 W x 114.3 H x 31.5 D mm).Operating Temperature:-20 to 120F (-30 to 50C).Case:Extruded aluminum bodywith nickel-plated aluminumend caps (gasket sealed).KeypadSealed membrane that isresistant to both water andpetroleum products.Four or five tactile-feedbackkeys.TransducerDual-element (transmit andreceive).1 to 10 MHz frequency range.Locking quick disconnectLEMO connectors.4 foot cable.Custom transducers availablefor special applications.& Thickness GaugePower SourceTwo 1.5V alkaline or1.2V NiCad AA cells.Typically operates for80 hours on alkaline and20 hours on NiCad.Display flashes when battery islow.
