-- Glass Replacement Made Easy With A Glass Thickness Gauge Meter --
With one button push, the Glass-Chek PRO tells you the exact replacement IG unit to order! The Glass-Chek PRO is perfectly suited for glass replacement, but it's also perfect for many other applications. Whether installing or servicing in the field, spot-checking in production, or inspecting a building, the Glass-Chek PRO gives you the answers you need—no guesswork - just simple results.
The Glass-Chek PRO has several advantages over previous models. New and improved features include:
New - Screen Advance Control Buttons:
The GC3001 allows users to advance to the results screens at their own discretion. The old GC3000 meter required the user to wait for the screens to run automatically. With push-button control of the ARROW keys, the user can advance or revert to the previous result screen.
New - Membrane Switch Front Panel:
The front panel is now entirely a smooth membrane switch front panel. The old GC3000 model had the power switch and button guard protruding from the front panel. The new GC3001 model makes the design more sleek and reliable than its predecessor.
New & Improved - Low-E Detection
The Glass-Chek PRO can locate a Low-E coating on a double-pane window from a single side. This is a significant advantage while testing multi-story buildings where you only have access to the inside of the window. With the old GC3000 model, if the Low-E coating were found on the far pane of glass from the detector, it would only confirm that the Low-E coating was on Surface 3 OR 4. With the new GC3001 model, the detector will confirm that the Low-E coating was found on Surface 3 (not applicable for certain window types).
New - Menu System:
The GC3001 incorporates a much easier MENU system than the old GC3000 design. By depressing and holding the ARROW key, the user will conveniently enter the MENU system to make any changes to the function of the GC3001 meter. The MENU allows users to change Operating Modes, Units of Measure, Languages, and Screen Advance Speeds. The selections are easily made via the ARROW and POWER keys.
New - Languages:
The new GC3001 includes the languages: English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish, AND also adds two additional languages - Swedish & Danish. Enter the MENU system and select the language you want the meter to operate in.
New - Welcome Screen Reminder:
The GC3001 meter now includes a friendly reminder on the Welcome Screen. It shows a simple graphic reminding the user to take all their measurements in the bottom center of the window. The bottom center location offers the most accurate and repeatable measurement location of the window. This is a great reminder for new and inexperienced users who might not have previously been trained on the product. The Welcome Screen also reminds the user of the current Operating Mode in which the meter operates. This is a convenient reminder to make sure the Mode matches the application the user is working with.

The new design includes a new robust LCD display with increased durability and an improved higher-precision laser for more accurate readings.
Triple Pane Thickness Measurement:
Measure glass, air space, and overall IG thickness of triple pane windows - all at the single push of a button.
Identify Types of Low-E Coatings and Determine Silver Layers:
When the Glass-Chek PRO detects a Low-E coating, it displays whether it is a hard or soft coat Low-E. When a soft coat is detected, the meter classifies it as single, double, or triple silvered. This enables users to identify types of Low-E coatings in the factory or the field, and it's handy for glass replacement applications.
Importance of knowing Low-E Type
When replacing glass, you must know the type of Low-E being used. Using the wrong coating can negatively affect the energy performance of a window. Additionally, the coating used on glass significantly affects how a window reflects light. Suppose you use a coating inconsistent with what is used throughout the rest of the building. In that case, the visual appearance will be affected, and the window could look significantly different than the other windows. The Glass-Chek PRO and Glass-Chek ELITE are the only tools to tell you the precise coating needed to replace glass properly.
If you happen to know the manufacturer of the glass, in many cases, you can identify the specific Low-E coating used to make the window. Here are some examples:
Enhanced Compatibility Means More Applications:
The Glass-Chek PRO has an expanded thickness range of approximately 2 inches (improved from 1.2 inches) and is compatible with residential and commercial glass. It's also compatible with new Low-E coatings, suspended film (i.e., Heat Mirror), tinted glass and displays the total thickness of laminated glass. Besides the GC3200 Glass-Chek ELITE, no other product in the world can handle this combination of applications.
Multiple Display Formats:
You can set up the Glass-Chek PRO to display measurement results in the best format. Choose from actual values or rounded to ASTM Standards in fractions (in inches), thousandths of an inch, decimal millimeters, and more.
Completely Portable:
The Glass-Chek PRO goes where you go, powered by a common (and easily replaceable) 9-volt alkaline battery. With the included protective carrying case, you don't have to worry about the meter getting damaged in the field.
Made in the USA by EDTM:
Over the last 25 years, glass testing equipment from EDTM has been trusted by over 5000 companies worldwide. EDTM designed and developed every element of the Glass-Chek PRO and manufactures the meters in its Toledo, OH plant. Expert service is only a phone call away if you ever have a technical question or problem with the Glass-Chek PRO or any of EDTM's tools. If your meter is ever damaged, you can rest assured that EDTM will be there to get it working again. When you buy from EDTM, you buy from a company with over a 25-year track record of standing behind its products and being there for its customers.
Applications:
- Measure single, double, and triple-pane windows in production, at the job site, or testing windows already installed in the field.
- Ensure proper orientation of Low-E coatings during installation, inspection, or the production process.
- Order the correct replacement IG unit by determining glass thickness characteristics and the type of Low-E coating. Save time & money and increase customer satisfaction by reducing incorrect ordering of IG units.
- Measure glass deflection in sealed IG window assemblies.
- Measure thickness on many automotive applications.
- Suitable for new or experienced window installers, production personnel, building inspectors, or surveyors.
