WE-7 Operating Instructions
2
The WE-7 allows the Operator to induce an AC or a pulsed DC field into the
ferrous material being tested. The device should be utilized within the
parameters set by the operational specifications within this guide.
1. Push Button Switch –
The Lycon (#11-304) Micro-Switch is the same
style of switch used in all Standard Yokes (WE-Series and Competitive units).
This style of switch has no grounding provision, so care must be taken by the
operator while performing Wet Method Inspection. The Switch Housings on
WE-Series Products were designed for comfort and safety. While depressed,
the switch delivers power (AC) to the coil encapsulated in the Yoke housing.
Review the instructions in this guide, for switch replacement.
2. Slip-In Switch Cover –
The Slip-In Switch Cover is exclusive to WE-
Series Yokes. To remove the cover, simply
pinch
the cover and pull it out.
While the Slip-In Switch Cover provides superior resistance to moisture
ingress, than mechanically fastened switch membranes, it must be regularly
removed to clean the Switch and Housing, during wet method inspection,
This cleaning will aid in the avoidance of operator shocks.
