ISO re-certification
PHYNIX meets the requirements of DIN EN ISO 9001: 2015
PHYNIX GmbH & Co. KG has been successfully re-certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001: 2015. This is the result of an audit that was carried out in mid-August 2021 on the premises of PHYNIX GmbH & Co. KG in Neuss. An auditor from VdS Schadenverhütung GmbH in Cologne examined all aspects of the standard, including risk and opportunity management and the structured use of the “knowledge” resource.
All existing processes, procedures and documents were checked and updated, new content was developed and also documented. Particularly noteworthy are the points “interested parties”, i.e. customers and suppliers, but also authorities, employees and dealers, as well as “company policy” and “company goals”.
Another focus was on the topic "risk and opportunity management". The risks and opportunities from each area were compiled and assessed, and measures to minimize risks or to seize opportunities were named.
The re-audit according to DIN EN ISO 9001: 2015 applies to the scope “development, manufacture and sale of devices for surface measurement, in particular coating thickness measuring devices”. With the ISO certificate, we document for our customers that the processes at PHYNIX are transparent and that we attach particular importance to quality.
The certificate is valid until September 14th, 2024. You can download it here:
Surfix X gauges now with USB charging function
Flexible Power Supply
All gauges of our Surfix® X-series (Surfix® Pro X and Surfix® EX / SX) have been expanded to include a new function and can now be operated with batteries, rechargeable batteries (NiMH) or directly via the USB port.
This means that all users have a choice: If the device is used frequently, rechargeable batteries are a good decision; if they are only used occasionally, the use of batteries is recommended. Alternatively, direct operation via the USB connection is also possible.
The new DC-2000C Wall Thickness Measurement Gauge
Determination of the material thickness with ultrasound
The compact PHYNIX wall thickness gauge DC-2000C is characterized by high accuracy and an easy-to-use menu structure. For fast material selection, the sound velocities of nine different materials are stored in the gauge. In addition, the gauge also allows the storage of four user-defined sound velocities.
The measurement process is simple: after selecting the material or the sound velocity, the probe is placed on the measuring spot which was prepared beforehand with a small amount of coupling gel. A symbol in the display indicates a successful pairing and the wall thickness is displayed.
Advantages at a glance
- Automatic zero calibration of the probe
- Automatic probe detection
- Measuring range: 0.65 - 400 mm (depending on the probe type)
- Suitable for various materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, glass, polystyrene
- Gain adjustable: Auto, High, Medium, Low
- Standard probe 5.0 MHz included, optional probes: 2.0 MHz, 7.5 MHz, 10 MHz and 5.0 MHz high temperature
- Display resolution 0.1 mm / 0.01 mm or 0.01 / 0.001 inch
Reason to celebrate: PHYNIX turns 20 years old!

Coating Thickness Gauge Surfix Pocket X
Modern Coating Thickness Gauge: backlight display, easy operation
Following the successful introduction of the revised Coating Thickness Gauges of the Surfix® X and Surfix® easy X family, the Pocket Surfix® has also been thoroughly modernized. Characterized by the X in the name and the modern keypad layout, the new devices offer a bright LED backlight for the display and a USB interface for easy data transfer.
The Pocket-Surfix® X-Series Coating Thickness Gauges are portable instruments for easy and accurate coating thickness measurement, e.g. of lacquers and galvanic layers on iron / steel and non-ferrous metals. Thanks to the integrated probe, the coating thickness gauges are particularly handy. The probe has a highly wear-resistant measuring pole made of carbide and thus guarantees a very long service life. A plastic foot with large footprint and V-groove ensures vertical positioning on flat, cylindrical and curved surfaces.

Fit for the future
Service software for 64 bit systems
To ensure accurate results, all coating thickness gauges from PHYNIX are calibrated prior to delivery and after any maintenance using a special calibration software. To make an easy use on all current operating systems possible, the experts of TheAppGuys GmbH in Cologne redesigned the existing calibration software. The software has been completely re-programmed on the basis of current technologies.
"We offer a wide range of gauges for coating thickness measurement, which are used in various applications. Who professionally measures the thickness of paint and varnish layers or galvanic coatings, relies on our Surfix products. Already for many years our gauges are among the most popular coating thickness gauges on the market. From now on we are using an updated calibration software that has been optimized from TheAppGuys for use on all modern computer operating systems," said Dr. Hendrik Brenig, CEO of PHYNIX GmbH & Co. KG.
Redesign of our tube probe
For coating thickness measurement in bores, tubes and grooves - now available
Based on our tried and tested FN1.5/90°-probe, both the probe head and the shaft have been redeveloped. The new development led to a more robust probe with improved suspension of the probe head. With this probe, coating thickness measurements on difficult-to-access areas are possible with a high measuring accuracy as well. Designed as a combination probe, it can measure on steel/iron as well as on NE metals (e.g. aluminium). The measuring range for both base materials is 0 – 1,500 µm, as for our standard probes.
The newly developed, deflecting suspension of the sensor head results in a very small measuring uncertainty and high reproducibility of measurement values.
Special features
- Novel, mechanically stable construction of sensor head and spring element
- Newly developed probe head out of a single piece
- Completely encapsulated sensor head for perfect protection of the sensitive coil system
- Modern design with chrome-plated grip
- Deflecting sensor guide
- FN-combination probe for very small spaces
New: 2 years warranty
All PHYNIX devices with extended warranty
Acquisition completed
ppm Sensortechnik takes over measurement gauge manufacturer PHYNIX from Cologne
With economic effect from July the 1st, 2014 ppm Sensortechnik GmbH in Neuss took over PHYNIX GmbH & Co. KG in Cologne. PHYNIX GmbH & Co. KG remains a legally independent enterprise after the takeover.
