MAGNOTEST II Operating Manual page 2
The MAGNOTEST II informs you if an object is magnetic (strong, weak or not at all.)
To remove the magnetism of an object, we recomend the use of the
Greiner-MAGNOMATIC.
1
Working conditions:
1.1 Power supply
4 batteries UM3 or power - transformer 6 volt DC.
1.2 Workplace
Do not use the Magnotest II near magnetic fields like :
transformers, speakers, motors etc.
1.3 Temperature.
Use the Magnotest II in room-temperature.
2
Putting into operation:
2.1 Switch on :
Press switch on left side (yellow LED (ON) lights up)
Warming-up time:
ca. 3 minutes
2.2 First operation
and change of Turn regulating device (Adjust) to ca. middle position
workplace: (white line shows ) and turn in front the calibration
potentiometer until all red lamps are off. Turn this small
screw with plastic screwdriver only.
3.
Measuring:
Important:
If not all red lights have gone off before testing an
object, following adjustment has to be made.
3.1 Adjustment
Magnotest without object - turn regulating device in such
a manner until all red lights have gone off.
3.2
How to measure
Put the object to be measured direct onto the center point.
Longish objects like screws etc. usually signal a stronger
magnetism at their head or face.
For small objects you must use a pair of tweezers made
of brass.
3.3 Interpretation of the
deflection :
Relative values are being shown.
This shows if an object is strong, weak or not at all
magnetic.
2 or 3 red lamps
light up : The object is relatively weak magnetic and can be demag-
netized with the Greiner Magnomatic until all lamps are off.
4 red lamps light
up : The object is relatively strong magnetic. Press weakener
(1/4); this will show a quarter of the effective magnetism.
Demagnetize the object with the Greiner Magnomatic until
it shows a noticeable weaker magnetism without using the
weakener (1/4).
