EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN ISO 2360 standard. EN ISO 2360 specifies a method for non-destructive measurements of the thickness of non-conductive coatings on nonmagnetic electrically conductive base metals using amplitude sensitive eddy current instruments.
In EN ISO 2360 the term "coating" is used for materials such as paints and varnishes, electroplated coatings, enamel coatings, plastic coatings, coatings and powder coatings.
This method is particularly applicable to measuring the thickness of most oxide coatings produced by anodizing, but not to all conversion coatings, some of which are too thin to be measured by this method.
This method can also be used to measure non-magnetic metallic coatings on non-conductive base materials. However, the phase sensitive eddy current method specified in ISO 21968 can be used especially for this application and can provide thickness results with higher accuracy.
This method is not applicable to measuring non-magnetic metallic coatings on conductive base metals. The phase sensitive eddy current method specified in ISO 21968 is particularly useful for this application. However, in the special case of very thin coatings with very small conductivity, the amplitude sensitive eddy current method can also be used for this application.
Although the method can be used to measure coating thicknesses on magnetic base metals, it is not recommended for this application. In such cases, the magnetic method specified in ISO 2178 can be used. In the case of very thick coatings only over about 1 mm, the amplitude sensitive eddy current method can also be used for this application.
