AbOUT SlC SENSORS
The SLC Series sensor may be used for tensile or
compression testing. The “S” type sensors have
one end dedicated for tension and the other end
dedicated for compression. It is important, when
using this type of sensor, to ensure that the proper
end of the sensor is being used.
INSERTING ThE SlC SENSOR
The SLC Sensor mates to the DFS II-R-ND using
a 15-pin connector. The connector on the SLC is
equipped with a PCB that helps the DFS II-R-ND
recognized the sensor characteristics.
With the DFS II-R-ND turned OFF, insert the SLC
connector making sure to properly “seat” the
individual pins. Once the sensor is connected,
secure the sensor by tightening the mounting
screws. Do NOT over-tighten. Finger-tight torque
is sufficient.
Turn the DFS II-R-ND ON. The gauge will display
the sensor capacity and resolutions for all available
units of measure.
If no sensor is connected, if an incompatible sensor
is applied, of it the sensor is damaged, the DFS II-
R-ND gauge will display “No Sensor”.
Carefully mate the connector on the SLC or STS sensor to
the connector on the side of the DFS II-R-ND gauge.
CAUTION: Never connect or disconnect a remote sensor when power to the gauge in On.
CAUTION: Do not over-tighten fixtures onto a sensor. Finger-tight torque is sufficient. Over-
tightening can damage the sensor, especially on low capacity sensors.
