Cartridges (ALC)’s
Warning! Incorrect
alignment of the ALC
may lead to damage to
the ALC interface pins.
The AFG has an interchangeable loadcell cartridge
(ALC), which allows selection of different capacity
load cells to be fitted to the AFG console.
To exchange the cartridge, power down the gauge
and remove it from the test stand if it is fitted to one.
Turn the gauge face down and insert a 3mm Allen key
(supplied) into the boss on the back of the ALC. To
unlock the ALC rotate the boss anti-clockwise with the
Allen key through approximately 30º to release the
spring loaded locking cam. While still holding the
Allen key in position slide the ALC away from the AFG
console to the left. See Figure 5.
Figure 5
Removing ALC
To fit the new ALC, first insert the Allen key into its
boss and rotate the locking cam as above. Slide the
ALC into the AFG console, ensuring that the mating
surfaces are correctly aligned.
Push the ALC firmly home into the AFG console and,
to lock it, tighten the locking cam by rotating the Allen
key clockwise until slight pressure is felt. Take care
not to over tighten the locking cam.
Warning! The AFG must
be powered down when
connecting or discon-
necting smart load
sensors.
