601 VS 312 — SELECTION POINTS
Both series provide:
• Large digital displays.
• Zinc alloy display housings.
• 3V battery operation.
• Four measurement functions.
• The same stated accuracy at corresponding measuring ranges.
The main visible difference is the display housing design. The 601 series also explicitly lists optional inch fraction display, while this option is not listed for the 312 series on the supplied page.
Neither series should be described as more accurate based on this catalogue.
CHOOSING THE MEASURING RANGE
150mm Models
Suitable for smaller components, fasteners and general workshop measurements within the 150mm capacity.
200mm Models
Provide additional capacity for components that exceed a 150mm measuring range.
300mm Models
Provide up to 300mm measuring capacity for larger components. Check jaw reach and access around the workpiece before selecting.
Select the range according to the largest dimension you need to measure and the required tolerance.
FOUR MEASUREMENT FUNCTIONS
Outside Measurement
Use the external jaws to measure accessible dimensions such as component width, thickness and outside diameter.
Inside Measurement
Use the internal jaws to check accessible internal dimensions. Correct positioning and alignment help achieve consistent readings.
Step Measurement
Use the step measuring faces to check suitable stepped features.
Depth Measurement
Use the depth rod to measure accessible hole or recess depths, keeping the reference face properly seated.
APPLICATIONS IN MALAYSIA
The DITRON 601 and 312 series can be considered for:
• General workshop dimensional checks.
• Machining and fabrication inspection.
• Incoming component inspection.
• Maintenance and spare-part measurements.
• Production and assembly checks.
• Technical training.
For workshops and inspection departments in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Johor and Penang, selection should consider measuring range, tolerance requirements, display preference and operating conditions.
For tight-tolerance work, assess whether a micrometer or another measuring instrument is more appropriate.
RESOLUTION AND ACCURACY
Both series have a metric display resolution of 0.01mm. Resolution describes the displayed increment and is different from measurement accuracy.
Catalogue-stated accuracy:
0–150mm models: ±0.02mm
0–200mm models: ±0.03mm
0–300mm models: ±0.04mm
A longer measuring range does not mean higher accuracy. Cleanliness, jaw alignment, measuring force, temperature and instrument condition also affect results.
BATTERY OPERATION
The catalogue lists 3V battery operation for both series.
The exact replacement battery code and operating duration are not specified on the supplied page. Confirm the correct battery from the operating instructions or supplier.
Rechargeable operation and Type-C charging are not listed for these models.
CARE AND BASIC CHECKS
• Clean the measuring faces and workpiece before use.
• Close the jaws gently and check the zero reading.
• Apply light, consistent measuring force.
• Keep the caliper aligned with the dimension being measured.
• Remove chips and residue before closing the jaws.
• Avoid measuring hot or moving components.
• Follow the supplied battery replacement and storage instructions.
• Check performance against suitable reference standards according to your quality procedure.
The supplied page does not state an IP protection rating. Confirm suitability before use around water, coolant or heavy contamination.
