4OZ COUPLING GEL

When using the 3812, there must be no air gaps between the wear-face and the surface of the material being measured. This is accomplished with the use of a "coupling" fluid, commonly called ''couplant''. This fluid serves to "couple", or transfer, the ultrasonic sound waves from the transducer, into the material, and back again. Before attempting to make a measurement, a small amount of couplant should be applied to the surface of the material being measured. Typically, a single droplet of couplant is sufficient.
