Basic and Advanced Capabilities of the 45MG Ultrasonic Thickness Gage

In its basic configuration the Olympus 45MG is a simple and straightforward ultrasonic thickness gage that requires minimal operator training to tackle most common thickness gaging applications.


The 45MG can become significantly more advanced and take on applications well beyond that of a typical entry-level gage with additional optional software options and transducers. Most options are available individually at the time of purchase or can be added in the
future as your needs change.

  • Compatible with full line of Olympus dual element transducers for thickness measurements on internally corroded metals
  • Min./Max. mode
  • Two Alarm modes
  • Differential mode
  • Time-based B-scan
  • Reduction Rate
  • Gain Adjust (standard, high, and low)
  • Password instrument lock

 

The Olympus 45MG offers five code-activated software options that makes it one of the most versatile thickness gages in the industry. From a simple corrosion gage to a multi-purpose precision thickness gage with only a few key strokes for use in many applications.
