9. Adjusting the measuring pressure
DO NOT ADJUST UNLESS IT IS REQUIRED !
Tools to be used
- 1 Hex screwdriver wrench ( 2 mm)
- 1 Dynamomètre (force gage) 0 – 300 grs
- The adjustment screw (7) is situated at the left side of
the column, inside on the measuring carriage.
- The measuring pressure is factory set at approx. 1 N.
- By turning this adjustment screw anticlockwise, the
measuring pressure will be decreased.(2 turns = ~0.1N)
- By turning this adjustment screw clockwise, the
measuring pressure will be increased. (2 turns = ~0.1N)
- The measuring pressure range is :
min : 0.7N – max : 1,6N.
How to adjust ?
- Measure the dynamometer until the acoustic signal ring.
- Read the dynamometer (e.i. : 100 grs).
To be more accurate, measure by using the fine adjustment.
10. Adjustment of the floating probe suspension
DO NOT ADJUST UNLESS IT IS REQUIRED !
Tools to be used
- 1 Hex screwdriver wrench (2mm)
- 1 Dynamometer (force gage) 0 – 300 grs.
- The adjustment screw (10) is situated on the left side of
the column, inside on the measuring carriage.
- If the measuring pressure is higher in the upwards
direction (probe too heavy), turn the control screw
anticlockwise. (1 turn = ~10 grs.)
- If the measuring pressure is higher in the downwards
direction (probe too light), turn the control screw
clockwise. (1 turn = ~10grs.)
- The TRIMOS probes weights about ~25grs, the probe
suspension could be adjusted upto a probe of 150grs.
How to adjust ?
- Measure the dynamometer until the acoustic signal ring.
1. (from bottom to top)
- Read the dynamometer (e.i. : 100 grs)
2. (from top to bottom)
- Read the dynamometer (e.i. : 102 grs)
- The measuring pressure has to be equal in both directions.
