Microderm MP-900
Beta Backscatter and Hall Effect System!
Microderm MP-900For companies that prefer a benchtop model
- Measures many typical thickness applications, including gold on nickel, copper on epoxy, photoresist, silver on copper, tin on kovar, titanium nitrate on steel, tin-lead alloys
- Microderm Beta Backscatter thickness standards (4 point sets) consist of a bare sample of base material, a sample of infinitely thick coating material, and two thickness standards certified traceable to the NIST (National Institute of Standards Technology)
- Can measure nickel thickness on copper using the Hall effect
- Each measurement system comes complete with a benchtop measuring instrument, a measuring probe and guide, and thickness standards
- Designed for unmatched ease-of-use and efficiency

Probes
All Microderm probes work with either the handheld or benchtop model
HH3 Probe
- Self contained probe system consisting of a probe barrel, beta source, Geiger-Muller tube sensor, specimen mask, and case assembly.
- Can be used with any of several probe guides and stands, enabling measurement on almost any size or shape of part.
WF Probe Guide
- The WF probe guide is used with the HH-3 or HH-2 probe and attaches in seconds without tools.
- This handy probe guide is balanced with a metal outer ring, which encircles a polished Lucite core.
- The guide holds the probe steady on horizontal surfaces.
SPG-1 Small Parts Probe Guide
- Uses an HH-3 probe and attaches in seconds without tools.
- A spring-mounted pressure pin holds small parts securely on the HH-3 probe for accurate, repeatable measurements.
The PS-10A Probe Table
- Allows precise, instant alignment of very small parts. Electronic components such as connectors, contacts, pins, and terminals are readily measured with the probe system
- A spring-loaded pressure pin securely hold parts steady.
Beta Thin Films "BTF" Probe
- Measures wet or dry coatings such as stamping lubricants, primers and adhesives on flat parts.
- Extremely thin organic and metal film coatings are accurately measured
