Digital height gauge M219.096 – Absolute system, 0.01 mm readout, 300 mm range

The Digital height gauge M219.096 is a 300 mm absolute height instrument with a 0.01 mm display increment, a connection socket for a digital dial gauge and a fine-adjustment handwheel for precise setting.

• 0.01 mm resolution for fine readings
• Absolute measuring system with 3 V power
• RB 6 output for dial gauge integration
• Carbide scribing tip and stainless steel frame

Accurate results that match workshop expectations

The instrument delivers a 0.01 mm display increment together with a stated accuracy of ±0.03 mm, which makes it suitable for standard metrology tasks in the machine shop. The 300 mm range places this tool in the Standard class of calipers and height gauges, offering the best balance between reach and rigidity for everyday engineering measurements. The absolute measuring system preserves reference data after power cycles, so repeat setups remain reliable without manual re-zeroing. For users unfamiliar with metrology terms: resolution is the smallest step the display shows, while accuracy is the measurement uncertainty; both matter for traceable results.

Streamlined measurement and data handling for faster workflows

Equipped with an RB 6 data output socket, the device accepts a compatible digital dial gauge for comparative measurement tasks or data logging; this enables simple integration into inspection routines. The digital readout features ON/OFF, mm/inch, HOLD, INC and ORIGIN keys, which simplify unit changes, incremental measurement and temporary value retention. There is no measurement speed limitation, so rapid displacement of the slide does not compromise operation — the combination of a readable display and a handwheel for precise feed ensures both speed and control when setting heights or transferring dimensions.

Built for daily industrial use and repeatable service life

The frame and slide are made from stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance and stabilising stiffness throughout the 300 mm travel. A carbide scribing tip ensures crisp layout lines and long wear life on metal surfaces. With a solid construction and an 8 kg mass that improves stability, the instrument resists vibration and handling variance, contributing to consistent measurement results shift after shift. The hand-operated fine adjuster gives tactile control for delicate setups and reduces operator-induced scatter during critical measurements.

Practical applications and compatibility with workshop processes

This gauge is well suited to setting tool heights, checking part heights, comparing components and transferring datum planes in general workshop and metalworking environments. The RB 6 interface makes it straightforward to use the instrument alongside existing digital indicators for comparative analysis or series inspection. For teams seeking support on integrating the gauge into quality workflows, Metav’s technical advisers can suggest compatible indicators and mounting options to match existing fixtures and measuring benches, helping to avoid unnecessary adapters or mismatched interfaces.

FAQ

What level of accuracy can be expected from this gauge?
The Digital height gauge M219.096 offers a display increment of 0.01 mm and a stated accuracy of ±0.03 mm, appropriate for standard workshop inspection and machine‑shop tasks.

Can a digital dial gauge be connected for comparative measuring?
Yes — the instrument provides an RB 6 data output socket for the connection of a compatible digital dial gauge to support comparative measurement workflows.

Is the measuring range suitable for general metalworking tasks?
With a 0–300 mm range the device is classified in the Standard category, covering the typical requirements of machine and metal construction for setup and inspection.

What is the advantage of the absolute measuring system used here?
The absolute system retains position reference after power cycles, so the gauge does not require re-zeroing every time it is switched on, improving efficiency and reducing setup time.

Are the scribing and contact parts durable for daily use?
Yes — the scribing tip is carbide and the construction is stainless steel, delivering high wear resistance and sustained repeatability in daily industrial use.
