To increase (or decrease) test duration after the
original cycles have been entered, the number of
specimen holder revolutions must be a value
greater than the completed cycles. Enter the new
value then press OK.
The
Abraser
specimen
holder
will
stop
automatically at the selected number of test cycles.
For the Model 1750, both specimen holders can be
preset to different values depending on the nature
of the test. Prior to entering a new value for the test
cycles, ensure the touchscreen is shown for the
correct specimen holder. To change between the
left or right, press the arrow button on the side of
the display screen or press the toggle switch at the
top status bar. LEFT or RIGHT will be shown
indicating which specimen holder is being
displayed. The ongoing cycle count for each will be
presented in the corresponding readout.
NOTE:
An abrasion cycle, or test cycle, is defined as one
complete revolution of the specimen in contact with the
abrading wheels.
Speed
The speed of the Rotary Platform Abrasion Tester
can be selected as 60 rpm or 72 rpm. The tester will
store the speed that was last selected in memory
and use this as a default until it is changed.
NOTE:
The specimen holders for the Model 1750 Dual
Abraser can be set to rotate at different speeds.
