What is shared, what differs
There is no compromise gauge in this finder
On the marketplaces every gauge calls itself professional. Here is what every CARSYS gauge shares — whichever one turns out to be yours.
Every probe is a combined one
Steel is measured by magnetic induction, non-ferrous metals by eddy current, and the gauge recognises the metal itself. A cheap single-coil gauge judges steel indirectly and misses by tens of microns.
The difference is equipment, not class
The filter above sorts the gauges by the job and by how much each one carries — not by the “level” of its owner. The measuring part is shared across the lineup, and accuracy is not something you buy with a surcharge.
Whichever you choose
A steel and an aluminium base with reference foils in every box, work down to −25 °C (−30 °C on the AVTOPODBOR) and a warranty from the manufacturer, not from the seller.
Where to buy
Buy the original from the manufacturer
Every gauge in the finder is available on the brand’s official storefronts. Everywhere it’s the genuine device with warranty and verification, not a copy from a stranger.
The manufacturer’s own store: the full range, help choosing and a warranty first-hand.
Official CARSYS storefront for international buyers with worldwide shipping.
The genuine CARSYS only
Buy on the brand’s official storefronts: every gauge comes with warranty and verification. How to tell the original from a fake is on the warranty page.

Questions about choosing
Questions about choosing
How do the kits of one gauge differ?
Only by what is in the box: the gauge, the probe and the accuracy are the same. On the AVTOPODBOR, AvtoPlus is the core kit, AvtoBig adds a storage case, AvtoMax adds a gift box as well. The DPM-816 works the same way: ProPlus is the core kit, COMBO adds a leather case, a bag and a gift box. The full contents of every box are in the kit table in the catalog.
Is an adjustable detector threshold worth the extra?
It is if you inspect cars constantly. The adjustable threshold comes only with the AVTOPODBOR line: it tunes the filler and zinc detectors to the car in front of you rather than to an average body. For a one-off check before buying, the factory threshold of the DPM-816 is enough.
Do I need state verification?
Verification is needed where a measurement carries legal weight: QC, a laboratory, incoming inspection, an expert report. That is what the industrial DPM-816 is for — it is listed in the Russian State Register of Measuring Instruments and ships with a passport, a verification mark and the procedure. Checking a car before buying needs none of that.
