Test at 20 mm Hg
A control weight is used for the check. The weight rod is engraved with five rings.
The middle ring corresponds to 0 mm Hg, the rings immediately to its left and right
correspond to a value of 20 mm Hg, and both outside scale rings have a value of
60 mm Hg.
One of the test position marks (20 or 60 mm Hg) is set exactly to the index line on
the holder. The weight is fitted on the feeler axis (a) so that the longer part points to
the examiner.
Check position 19.5
The sensor arm must not move from the free‑movement area toward the limit stop
in the direction of the examiner before the display shows 19.5 mm Hg or after the
display shows 20.5 mm Hg.
Check position 20.5
The sensor arm must not move from the free‑movement area toward the limit stop
