Mitutoyo 543-502 Absolute Solar Digimatic Indicator, 0-0.5"/0-12.7mm Range, 0.00005"/0.001mm Resolution, Lug Back

The Mitutoyo 543-502 Absolute Solar Digimatic Indicator is an inch and metric digital indicator with LCD for measuring surface variations that has measurement range of 0.5"/12.7mm and a resolution 0.00005"/0.001mm, a lug back, a 3/8" stem diameter, and a solar-powered battery that provides continuous operation at a lighting level of 40 lux and greater. The battery has a reserve capacity of approximately 3.5 hours when fully charged. The indicator's absolute sensor automatically restores the last origin position when the unit is powered on, aiding multipoint measurement. The lug back designs allows lug mounting from the rear of the indicator. The indicator is Ingress Protection certified IP42 against solid objects over 1mm and direct sprays of water up to 15 degrees from the vertical. It meets ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standards and AGD (American Gage Design) standards for stem diameter. It has an SPC (statistical process control) output by which data may be exported. Indicators are used manufacturing and scientific applications to monitor and measure tolerance.

Specifications

Dial indicators are also called dial gauges, probe, and electronic indicators. These precision instruments measure small linear distances and object sizes. The dial magnifies the measurement so that it can be easily read by the human eye. Frequently used in manufacturing, laboratories, and other industrial or mechanical fields, dial indicators are used anywhere a small measurement must be found and recorded or transferred, such as checking the variation in tolerance of a workpiece. Standard dial indicators measure the displacement along the axis of the indicator. Dial test indicators are very similar to dial indicators, except that the axis of measurement is perpendicular to the axis of the indicator. Dial and dial test indicators can be analog, with a mechanical dial, or electronic, with a digital display. Some electronic models transfer the data electronically to a computer for recording and potential manipulation.

Mitutoyo manufactures precision measuring tools, metrology equipment, and related systems. The company, founded in Tokyo in 1934, formed Mitutoyo America Corporation in 1963 with headquarters in Aurora, IL.
