GoldScreenPen User Manual

1. Introduction

The Goldanalytix GoldScreenPen is a practical and innovative device designed for the rapid and non-destructive authentication of precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. This highly portable and precisely engineered tool provides real-time material conductivity statements, making it ideal for various applications including precious metal recycling, pawn shops, banks, coin dealers, and waste disposal companies.

It features the world's smallest inductive measuring tip, allowing for the testing of various objects like ingots and coins (though not for carat determination). The GoldScreenPen offers high sensitivity and measurement precision, with an integrated digital display for easy operation.

2. Safety Information

5. Operating Instructions

The GoldScreenPen uses an inductive measuring principle to determine the authenticity of precious metals.

1. Preparation: Ensure the surface of the metal object to be tested is clean and free of dirt or coatings that might interfere with the measurement.
2. Placement: Gently place the measuring tip of the GoldScreenPen directly onto the surface of the metal object. Ensure full contact.
3. Reading: The device will display a conductivity reading (Leitwert [MS/m]) on its screen. Compare this reading to known values for authentic precious metals.
4. Interpretation:
   • Authentic gold, silver, platinum, and palladium will yield specific conductivity ranges. Refer to the detailed manual (included in the package) for precise values.
   • The device can measure through thin films and many blister packs, making it versatile for various forms of precious metals.
   • It is effective for testing coins and small ingots up to 1 ounce.
   • Silverware can also be clearly verified.
