Timeless® Coating Detector

Quickly Identify TIMELESS® Coatings in Production or at Installation

Saint-Gobain's TIMELESS® glass protects itself from corrosion and limescale (hard water) buildup. SGG TIMELESS® is typically not coated on both sides of the glass. Therefore, installers can use the RD1680 instrument to verify the TIMELESS® coated surface is on the interior of the enclosure.

Prevent the loss of time and money in repairing an incorrect installation, and protect your reputation by doing a professional job. You can also use the instrument to test the glass in front of your customers. This assures them that the glass is installed properly.

OPTO-CLEAN Technology Ensures Accurate Readings

If the OPTO-CLEAN software detects the build-up of dirt on the lens of the meter that could affect the accuracy of the measurement, the meter displays a warning that instructs the user to clean the lens. The warning stops once the lens is cleaned, so the operator knows the meter is working properly.

Easy Field Calibration Prevents Downtime

Under normal conditions, the meter rarely requires calibration. If necessary, the meter can easily be calibrated in the field. Error protection is built-in to confirm that a valid calibration has occurred. Typically, the meter is unnecessary to be returned to the factory for calibration. This saves money and prevents downtime.

Applications:

Test glass that is annealed or tempered
Test glass at incoming or outgoing inspection
Test glass during the manufacturing process
Use the meter during installation to ensure the TIMELESS® coating goes on the interior of the shower enclosure
Use during follow-up field service calls if there are questions from the customer
