Introduction 
The PosiTector Surface Profile Gage (SPG) is a hand-held 
electronic instrument that measures the surface profile (peak-to- 
valley height) of blasted steel, textured coatings and concrete 
profile. It consists of a PosiTector body (Standard or Advanced) and 
probe. Quick Start 
Press the button to power up the Gage. To conserve battery life, 
the gage will automatically go to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity. 
While in Sleep Mode, the gage powers up significantly faster—
convenient when moving between parts or locations. Thegage will 
completely power offafter 4hoursof inactivity. Alternatively, select 
Power Off from the main menu. All settings are retained. 
1. Remove the protective rubber cap from probe. 
2. Power-up Gage by pressing the center navigation button. 
3. Verify Gage accuracy (pg.3). 
4. Place the probe FLAT on the surface to be measured such 
that the tip of the probe reaches into the bottom of a profile 
valley. HOLD STEADY. The Gage will BEEP twice and 
display the measurement. 
5. Lift the probe from the surface between measurements. 
Menu Operation 
To access the Menu, power-up the gage, then press the center 
navigation button . Either the keypad or touch screen can be 
used to navigate the menu. If desired, touch screen functionality 
can be disabled within the Setup menu (See Touch, pg. 5). 
Select a menu option by touching it, or use the and but- 
tons to highlight the desired option and press to select it. 
On menus longer than one page, the current page number is 
displayed below the menu name. Navigate between pages using 
when the first menu item is selected, or when the last 
menu item is selected. If using touch, navigate between pages 
by touching or , or by swiping up or down.

Probes

When powered-up, the PosiTector automatically

determines which probe is attached and does a self-

check.

To disconnect a probe from a body, slide the plastic

probe connector horizontally (in the direction of the

arrow) away from the body. Reverse these steps to

attach a different probe. It is not necessary to power-

down the Gage when switching probes.

PosiTector SPG and SPG S probes include a 60˚ (ASTM D 4417

B) or 30˚ (Australian Standard AS 3894.5) angle tip (50 µm/2 mil

radius) with a measurement range of 0 to 500 µm (20 mils).

PosiTector SPG OS probes have the same specifications as the

PosiTector SPG probes above but feature a V-groove sleeve ideal

for measuring flat or convex surfaces such as tanks and pipes.

PosiTector SPG CS probes measure the profile of textured

coatings up to 1500 µm (60 mils) with a 500 µm (20 mil) radius 60˚

angle tip.

PosiTector SPG TS probes measure concrete surface profile up

to 6 mm (250 mils) with a 500 µm (20 mil) radius 60˚ angle tip.

Additionally, the PosiTector body accepts a wide variety of

probe types including magnetic, eddy current, and ultrasonic

coating thickness, surface profile, environmental, hardness, salt

contamination, gloss, and ultrasonic wall thickness probes.

Calibration & Verification of Accuracy

Calibration

Instrument calibration is typically performed by the manufacturer.

All probes include a Certificate of Calibration.

Verification of Accuracy

Instrument accuracy is verified using the included metal shim and

glass zero plate. Ensure that the glass plate and shim are clean

and dirt free before use.

Place the plate onto a stable, flat surface. Take several

measurements. If the average is greater than ±5 µm (0.2 mil), Zero

(pg. 4) the Gage.

Next, place the metal shim over the glass plate and measure,

ensuring the probe needle touches the glass plate in the area

between the shim’s “legs”. The average of several measurements

should be within the combined tolerances of both the Gage and

the shim.

If not, see Returning for Service (pg.11).

Zero

Zero Menu

The PosiTector SPG has only one adjustment point at zero.

The zero point can be set using one of two methods.

Both methods are found under the Zero menu option:

Glass Plate Zero

Zeroing on the included glass plate is the preferred method for

best accuracy:

1. Select from the menu.

2. Press the button to select the number of readings

to be used to obtain an average, typically 3.

3. Repeatedly measure the glass plate. After the last

measurement, the Gage will calculate a zero which

represents the average of all the zero readings taken.

Factory Zero

If a glass plate or suitable smooth, hard surface is not available,

the factory zero setting can be restored:

1. Select from the menu.

2. Press the button to select Reset (below) and press the

button. The factory calibration icon 0 will appear on the

display.

NOTE: The factory zero setting may not always be accurate,

particularly after a probe tip exchange. For best accuracy, the

Gage should be zeroed on the included glass plate.

Setup Menu

Converts the display from mils to microns and vice versa.

Reset (menu reset) restores factory settings and returns the

Gage to a known condition. The following occurs:

Memory Management

The PosiTector SPG has internal memory storage for recording

measurement data. Stored measurements can be reviewed

on-screen or accessed via computers, tablets and smart phones.

All stored measurements are date and time-stamped. The

symbol appears when the Gage is set to store measurement data.

Standard models store up to 1,000 readings in one batch.

Advanced models store 250,000 readings in up to 1,000

batches. “New Batch” closes any currently opened batch and

creates a new batch name using the lowest available number.

New batch names are date-stamped when they are created.
