6.4 Wybór materiałów

The device includes pre-set material functions and allows for the addition of up to 3 new material settings to facilitate hardness testing of special materials. Select the appropriate material from the menu before taking measurements.

6.5 Wykonywanie pomiaru

1. Ensure the test surface is clean, smooth, and stable (Ra < 15um).
2. Select the correct material and hardness scale.
3. Place the probe firmly and perpendicularly onto the test surface.
4. Initiate the measurement as per the on-screen instructions (e.g., press a function key).
5. The hardness value will be displayed on the screen, typically in Vickers (HV) along with the selected hardness scale.

6.6 Zarządzanie danymi

The device can store a maximum of 600 sets of measurement data. Each data set includes the measurement date, sensor type, material, number of times, single measurement value, average value, maximum value, minimum value, and hardness scale.

Data can be exported via the USB 2.0 communication interface to a PC for further analysis. Software for data exchange and settings configuration on a PC is available.

6.7 funkcja alarmu;

The upper and lower limits for hardness values can be pre-set. If a measurement falls outside this defined range, the device will issue an automatic alarm, which is useful for batch testing and quality control.

7. Konserwacja

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your hardness durometer:

• Czyszczenie: Wipe the main unit and probe with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Składowanie: Store the instrument and its accessories in the provided carrying case in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use.
• Pielęgnacja baterii: To maintain battery health, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. If storing for extended periods, charge the battery to approximately 50% and recharge every few months.
• Kontrola sondy: Regularly inspect the probe tip for wear or damage. A damaged probe can lead to inaccurate readings.
