Introduction
Al Muhandes Workshop Equipment is proud to be the exclusive agent in the Middle East for QNIX, a leading German company in precision hardware manufacturing. We present the QNix ® 4200 Car Paint Inspection Device with Cable Probe Fe 5 mm, designed for a variety of applications, especially in the automotive industry.
Handling Instructions
Despite its rugged design, the QNix® 4200 should be handled correctly to ensure accurate measurements at all times. Avoid dropping it and protect it from dirt, dust, humidity, chemicals, and aggressive vapors. Store the gauge in its protective case after use. Avoid large temperature variations, direct sunlight, and strong electromagnetic fields, such as transformers or high voltage lines. Do not measure on magnetized parts. Clean the housing with a soft damp cloth and check the probe tip regularly for dirt and paint.
