I. Product Introduction
The coating thickness gauge is professionally used for measuring the thickness of car paint. The car
body shell material is generally metal materials such as iron, aluminum and non-metallic materials such
as carbon fiber, plastic, etc. The coating thickness gauge can measure the car paint thickness on iron
and aluminum substrates. . Moreover, it can identify not only non-metal
car bodies, but also the ferrous putty layer as well as the galvanized iron.
The gauge has two displays on the front and the top separately. The two
displays simultaneously display the test data. When measuring different
positions of the car body, it is convenient to view the test data. Among
them, the front display uses LCD, LCD ensures that the test results are
clearly visible under strong light. The top display uses OLED, OLED
ensures normal display in a low temperature environment of -40°C. It
also features 3-color backlight display. When the device identifies the
ferrous putty, the backlight turns red. In case of the galvanized iron
substrate, the backlight turns green. And under other situations, the
backlight is white.

visible under strong light and OLED ensures normal display in a low temperature environment of -
40°C.
6. The device can identify the ferrous putty as well as the galvanized iron substrate. It also features 3-
color backlight display.
7. Wear-proof ruby probe tip for long-term use.
8. Dual-use probe for both iron and aluminum. The gauge can automatically identify the substrate and
switch measurement mode rapidly.
9. "Fe", "NFe", "Fe/NFe" three measurement modes can be set.
10. The gauge can measure the non-magnetic coating thickness on metal substrates and non-conductive
coating thickness on non-magnetic substrates.
11. Use advanced digital probe technology, these sensors are unsusceptible to interference and provide
an excellent measuring accuracy. Even temperature change will not affect measurement and data

remain stable to ensure a very good reproducibility over the complete measuring range.
IV. Operation
1. Power on/off
Power on:
Short press the power button to turn on the gauge. Display the version number and serial number, then
the recorded data of last measurement are displayed after the gauge is turned on.
Power off:
Long press the button to shut down the gauge, or the gauge will automatically shut down in 3 minutes
without any operation.
2. Device setting
In the off state, long press the button for 3s to enter the setting interface.After entering the setting interface,
if there is no operation for more than 20 s, the gauge will automatically shut down.Short press the button
can select the settings; Long press the button for 3 s and less than 5 s to confirm the settings; long press
the button for 5 s, the gauge exits the setting and shuts down and the setting is invalid.
Language settings
The instrument is available in Chinese, English, Russian, Turkish.
Setting method: In the main setting interface, short press power button to select "Language" option, long
press the button for 3 seconds to confirm the selection, short press the button again to select the desired
language, long press the button for 3 seconds to confirm the selection, and return to the main setting
interface.
Setting interface Language selection
Measurement modes selection
There are three measurement modes: Ferrous substrate measurement (Fe), Aluminum substrate
measurement (Al), and Auto identification (Fe/Al). Under normal circumstances, it is enough to use Fe/Al
auto identification mode. This mode features identification of the ferrous putty and galvanized iron
substrate. When the measurement substrate is settled, you can select Fe or Al as the fixed
measurement mode.

Setting method: In the main setting interface, select "mode" option by short pressing power button, and
long press the button for 3 seconds to confirm the selection. Shortly press the button to select the
measurement mode. And long press the button for 3s to confirm the selection and back to the main
setting interface.
Unit setting
The device can be set to the metric or imperial unit, and the factory default is metric.
Setting method: In the main setting interface, shortly press the button to select “Unit”. Long press the

3. Zero adjustment
A zero-adjustment is required when using the gauge for the first time, after inserting new batteries, working
with different materials or ambient temperature changes. We strictly recommend carrying out the reference
check on the uncoated original substrate, due to the difference of magnetic and conductive properties of
the material, some measurement deviation will be caused. If this is not possible, please use the zero
reference plates supplied by Linshang technology, there are Fe plate and NFe plate, please choose
correctly according to the measuring materials.
3.1 Measuring the plate or uncoated original substrate, a measured value will be displayed on the gauge,

3/12/2022 Page 6 of 8
please make sure the probe tip is placed perpendicularly and evenly on the surface.
3.2 Hold the probe still, long press the button for 3s, the gauge will display “zero reference place probe”
(as shown in below picture).
3.3 After hearing a buzzer sound, the gauge will display “Lift off probe at least 15 cm” (as shown in below
picture), release the button and lift the probe away from the plate (substrate) for at least 15 cm.
3.4 The zero adjustment completed when there is the buzzer sound again, and the LCD screen displays
0.0.
3.5 After the zero adjustment is completed, place the standard film on the plate (substrate), if the
measurement value is stable and deviation from standard value within ±3μm, the gauge can be used
normally.
Note: After the zero adjustment completed，when repeating measurement on the same spot, the
reading may not always be 0μm, since surface roughness, dirt, scratches etc. It might cause
variances. The operation of the gauge should be correct and proficient; otherwise, it will lead to
instability of the measured values.
4. Measurement
1) Hold the non-slip groove with your fingers.
Shenzhen Linshang Technology Co., Ltd.
3/12/2022 Page 7 of 8
2) Press the probe against the tested object surface vertically. Keep the probe stable, do not tilt or shake.
Measurement value will appear on the display with buzzer alerts.
3) To continue the measurement, you can lift off the probe away from the object to be measured, and
then follow step 2) again.
4) When the device identifies the ferrous putty, it will turn on the red backlight. The buzzer alerts for two
times. And the interface of the device will prompt: “Ferrous putty”. When the device identifies the
galvanized iron, it will turn on the green backlight. The substrate is displayed as “FeZn”.
5. Check measurement records
In measurement mode, short press the button to check historical data. The gauge stores 9 sets of data.
When more than 9 sets of data are stored, the earliest recorded value is automatically deleted, and “No.1”
is the last test data. Recorded data will not loss after powering off.
V. Precaution
1. The device must be zero adjusted respectively with the iron-base and aluminum-base zero adjustment
plates. Otherwise, there may be abnormal identifications of the ferrous putty and galvanized iron substrate.
2. It is strictly forbidden to slide the probe on the surface of the car body; otherwise both the car paint and
device will be damaged.
3. Please ensure that the paint surface of the car body is clean. Dust, dirt and other foreign objects on the
surface will affect the measurement accuracy.
4. When the device displays “Low Battery”, batteries should be replaced.
