Peak Select Key
The Peak Select key is used to select from among the three modes of operation: Track,
Peak, and Initial Peak. When turned on, your
Torq-Tronics
®
always boots into Track
mode. Each time this key is pressed, it pages to the next mode of operation.
Track mode is used for calibration of the
Torq-Tronics
®
unit. When the tester is in Track
mode, "Tk" will be displayed at the far right of the LCD.
Peak mode is used for testing all non-impacting power tools. This includes clutch, stall, and
pulse-type tools. Your
Torq-Tronics
®
cannot be used to test impact wrenches. When the
tester is in this mode, "PK" will be displayed at the far right side of the LCD.
Initial Peak mode is used for testing clicker-type torque wrenches and torque screwdrivers.
This mode captures the torque at which the torque stopped rising due to activation of the
torque-limiting mechanism inside. When the tester is in this mode, "IP" will be displayed at
the far right of the LCD.
Filter Key
Filters are electronic devices which "clean up" the analog electrical signal coming from the
torque transducer before the signal is measured and the measurement converted to torque.
This filtering removes some of the top of the wave peak and the bottom of the wave trough
in the signal from the transducer. There are five of these filters in the
Torq-Tronics
®
tester,
and they are numbered "0" through "4". The lower the filter number, the more of the peak
and valley is discarded before the signal is sent on for processing. The Filter Key pages
through the four available filters in sequence. More about filters may be found in chapters
on filters and power tool testing.
Transducer
The transducer is the device which uses Hooke's Law and Ohm's Law to convert applied
torque into an electrical signal. The front of the transducer has either a male hex drive (on
units of 300 inch-pound capacity or less) or a female square drive (units of greater than 300
inch-pounds capacity). It is the transducer to which the torque tool is connected for testing.
Battery Compartment Cover
Retains the rechargeable AA nickel cadmium batteries. This cover should only be removed
to replace batteries.
Power Switch
The power switch is used to turn on the tester for use or turn it off when testing has been
completed.
Fuse
Your
Torq-Tronics
®
tester has a ½ ampere Buss fuse in the fuse holder.
