Statistics

“The new Elcometer 311 doesn’t just take a thickness measurement”

In addition to the paint thickness, the new Elcometer 311 Paint Meter displays the key statistical values used to assess the overall condition of the paint work; number of readings (n),average coating thickness (x),the lowest paint thickness (Lo) and the Elcometer Index Value (EIV).


Elcometer Index Value - EIV

“The higher the EIV the more severe the PPW”

As each measurement is taken, the new Elcometer 311 Automotive Paint Meter can transmit the thickness value via Bluetooth® either straight into your inspection application or into ElcoMaster®, Elcometer’s mobile app, for instant report generation.


Wireless Connectivity

“Seamlessly connect to any PC, Android™ or iOS mobile device”

A chaque mesure prise, le nouveau mesureur de peinture automobile Elcometer 311 permet de transférer via Bluetooth® les valeurs d'épaisseur relevées directement sur votre propre application d'inspection ou vers ElcoMaster®, l'appli mobile d'Elcometer, pour la création immédiate de rapports.
