The easy interface with USB/RS232 connectivity, instantaneous response, and compatibility with metal specimens at least 70 mm wide enhance its usability.
FAQs of Portable Hardness Tester-IM:
Q: How do I operate the Portable Hardness Tester-IM for metal hardness measurement?
A: Begin by powering on the device using two 1.5V AA batteries, select your desired language, and choose between manual or automatic control. Place the steel probe on the metal specimen (minimum 70 mm width) and follow the display instructions. Results are delivered instantaneously with a clear backlit LCD readout.
Q: What materials can be tested using this hardness tester?
A: The device is designed for hardness testing of metals, supporting various scales such as Leeb Hardness (HL), HRC, HB, HV, HRB, HRA, and HS. It is suitable for manufacturers, suppliers, and metalworkers needing to assess the hardness of metallic components.
Q: Where can I use the Portable Hardness Tester-IM?
A: This tester is ideal for on-site, factory, and quality control environments. With an operating temperature of 0-40C and humidity up to 90% RH, it handles most workshop and field conditions commonly found in industrial settings.
Q: What is the memory capacity and how can I access stored data?
A: The tester can store up to 100 groups of hardness results. Data can be accessed and exported via its standard USB/RS232 interface, facilitating easy record-keeping and further analysis on a connected computer.
Q: How is calibration performed on the tester?
A: Calibration can be executed either automatically or manually according to user preference. The process is straightforwardfollow the on-screen instructions to ensure accuracy before each testing session or after prolonged use.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this portable hardness tester?
A: Key advantages include swift, accurate hardness readings, portability for field testing, robust durability, simple operation, multi-language support, extensive result storage, and compatibility with various metal hardness scales, supporting efficient quality control.
Q: When should I replace the batteries, and what is the expected battery life?
A: Replace the batteries when the display indicates low power or when the device response diminishes. Under normal conditions, two 1.5V AA batteries provide up to 100 hours of continuous testing, ensuring long usage between battery changes.
