Strain gage sensors require little
maintenance.
CLEANING
Pull sensors from the mold and clean out
the pockets and channels when a mold
is pulled for preventative maintenance.
LES‑B‑127‑50/125/500/2000 sensors must
be installed in pockets free from oil, dirt,
grime, and grease.
TESTING & CALIBRATION
TESTING SENSORS
Basic force tests are easily performed on
the LES‑B‑127‑50/125/500/2000 sensors;
a small, even amount of force applied to
the sensor head loading nub is sufficient to
determine if the sensor is correctly reading
pressure.
CAUTION
a
NEVER strike the sensor head with
excessive force; failure to comply
will result in damage or destruction
of sensor.
RJG, Inc. offers the following tools to test
sensors.
4.
Sensor eValuator
The Sensor eValuator provides diagnostics
on typical sensor problems such as sensor
drift, preload, and zero shift, and can also
detect sensor installation errors caused
by improper pocket dimensions, damaged
wires, and damaged sensor heads. A test
report with sensor configuration can be
emailed or printed from the device. This
device allows testing of up to thirty‑two
sensors at one time and can verify that a
force was applied to the sensor.
5.
eDART Software—Raw Data Viewer
The eDART Raw Data Viewer displays the
status of the sensor, either Valid, No Reply,
Stale, or Invalid.
•
A Valid sensor has raw counts that
change when force is applied to the
sensor; this indicates a properly working
sensor.
•
A No Reply sensor is not communicating
with the eDART; the sensor may be
unplugged.
•
A Stale sensor indicates a sensor that is
unused.
•
An Invalid sensor will indicate a Failure of
either Over‑range (Ovrng) or Under‑range
(Undrng). The Ovrng indicates the
sensor’s calibration has changed too
far in a positive direction, outside of the
upper specification. The Undrng indicates
that the sensor’s calibration has changed
too far in a negative direction, and the
sensor may report a number below zero
when load is applied.
