Measuring with defined measurement
times (dwell time)
As opposed to short time measurements, you can
carry out measurements whose dwell time you can
determine yourself. In order to measure with a steady
accuracy you require a cylindrical probe attachment
as well as a test support.
You can set a dwell time between 1-99 seconds.
Setting the dwell time
–
Press
M
until the following indication appears in the
display:
–
Set the required dwell time with
^8
, for example:
–
Press
-
if you wish to return to the measurement
mode or simply carry out a measurement.
Carrying out a measurement
–
Screw on the cylindrical attachment tightly down to
screw stop on the probe case.
–
Clamp the probe into the support (DH 191 or
MIC 222). By doing this you will avoid measurement
inaccuracies.
–
Select the required hardness scale.
–
If necessary set the calibration value and the alarm
threshold.
–
Carry out the measurement.
–
Make certain that the tip of the probe attachment is
pressed on the material to be measured during the
complete measurement time.
