This quick start guide provides basic setup and operating instructions for the PT-55 Peel Force Tester. The intended
use of the PT-55
is to measure the peel force of sealed SMD tape. Use of this equipment in any other way is not
recommended.
Work Area:
The PT-55 is designed to be operated in a temperature-controlled, light industrial setting. The machine
should be installed on a flat, dry, stable surface in a well-lit area. Choose a table that is at least 24” wide by 15”
deep to provide sufficient space for the assembled machine.

Only qualified personnel with the proper technical training, experience working on this type of equipment,
and awareness of the possible hazards should perform maintenance on the PT-55.
The user is protected from moving parts and exposure to objects being ejected under pressure by metal
enclosures. The PT-55 should never be operated with these enclosures removed.
Disconnect the machine from the power supply placing the unplugged cable in clear view before
performing maintenance.
Never pull on the Load Cell Chain by hand! Exceeding the cell’s rated force can shift its output or even
destroy it.
