Description
Probe pressure adjustment
The cylindrical probe has an adjustable load in one of three ranges.
The ranges are: 10-30g, 30-60g, and 60-150g.
Within a range the load is adjusted by turning the pressure adjustment screw clockwise. The load indicator goes clockwise from ‘L’ (low load) round to‘H’ (high load).
Optimum probe pressure
The probe has a plastic insulating pad on the nosepiece.
It is intended that this pad is in contact with the measured sample when a measurement is being made. This ensures that the needles are retracted the correct distance and that the optimum indicated load is achieved.
