GEMORO PRO-D 3
4
CONDITIONS FOR IDEAL OPERATION
1. The PRO-D 3 should be used in the
following environmental conditions.
Both the tester and the stone being
tested must be the same temperature.
By not following these instructions you
risk compromising the accuracy of the
test.
a. Temperature: 65°F-80°F (18°C-27°C)
b. Air Relative Humidity: 45%-75%
2. The stone being tested must be dry. If
the surface of the stone is wet or has
any type of surface moisture it may not
test correctly.
3. The stone being tested must be
clean. Aside from obvious visible dirt
that may be present on the stone,
there may also be hand oil or other
contaminates on the stones surface
that may not be visible and which
could impact the accuracy of the test.
Always be certain to clean the stone
being tested with an ultrasonic or
steamer or other appropriate means,
and thoroughly dry it and/or remove
any cleaning chemicals remaining on
the stone prior to testing.
4. It is imperative that the probe tip be
cleaned regularly or ideally prior to
performing a test. Please be aware
that there may be hand oil or other
contaminates that may not be visible
on the probe tip, which could impact
the accuracy of the test. To clean the
tip, take a piece of uncoated white
printer or copy paper and place the
probe tip of the tester at a 90 degree
angle against the paper while gently
rubbing it in a forward motion a few
times. Repeat this process routinely or
prior to testing each time to ensure the
cleanliness of the probe tip.
