QNix® 4500 Car Paint Inspection Device  with Dual Cable Probe Fe 3 mm/NFe 3 mm

Al Muhandes Workshop Equipment is proud to be the exclusive agent in the Middle East for QNIX, a leading German company in precision instrument manufacturing. We present the German Car Paint Inspection Device QNix® 4500 with Dual Cable Probe Fe 3 mm/NFe 3 mm, designed for a variety of applications, especially in the automotive and precision painting industries.

Handling Instructions

Despite its robust design, the QNix® 4500 should be handled properly to ensure accurate measurements at all times. Avoid dropping the device and protect it from dirt, dust, moisture, chemicals, and aggressive vapors. Store it in its protective case after use. Avoid large temperature fluctuations, direct sunlight, and strong electromagnetic fields such as transformers or high-voltage lines. Do not measure on magnetized parts. Clean the casing with a soft damp cloth and regularly check the probe tip for dirt and paint residues.
