Note: Damage May Be Done If Slit Jaws Are Opened Wider Than 3.0mm.
Model 716 Bilateral Slit: Width Adjustments
The slit width of each bilateral slit assembly (716 type) is adjustable from 0.010 millimeters to 3
millimeters (10µm to 3,000µm) by a micrometer located on the top of the slit housing. The micrometer
knob is graduated in 0.010 millimeter (10µm) increments.
Each clockwise revolution of the micrometer knob increases the slit width 0.25 millimeters (250µm). For
maximum reproducibility, the slit width should be set in a clockwise direction (increasing slit widths)
each time it is changed. Refer to the drawing below.
The micrometer knob should not be rotated below a reading of 0.00 or above 3.00. A micrometer setting
of less than 0.010 millimeters (10µm) should not be used, because a stop is provided to prevent the slit
jaws from contacting each other.
