    Use the ‘UP’ arrow key to select the desired unit of measure. 5.3.6.2 The Torq-Tronics 2 supports operation in English, S.I. and Metric units of Measure. 5.3.6.3 Important note: Changing the unit of measure causes the test point to be reset to zero.
  • Page 11: Operational Overview

    Operation Please follow the procedure for each wrench tested. Be sure the Torq-Tronics 2 tester has been exercised three times to capacity in the direction CW or CCW that it will be used. Adjustable wrenches should also be exercised three times at 4 different points along the scale of capacity before beginning the test.

    +/- 2% a calibration unit must have a minimum accuracy factor of +/-.5%. The Torq-Tronics 2 has an accuracy factor of +/- 0.5% meaning it can calibrate torque wrenches with an accuracy factor of +/-2%. It is also capable of calibrating wrenches with a lesser accuracy such as +/- 6%.
  • Page 13 Torq-Tronics 2 Owners Manual General Set Up Process For All Tests: The following process of setting up Torq-Tronics 2 for testing can be used to verify or calibrate any acceptable tool type. (Impact tools are not acceptable.) Memory: If you see three digits in the lower right hand side of the display, memory function is set to on.

    12.6 Remember: Torq-Tronics 2 has an accuracy of +/- .5%. Some digital torque wrenches have a +/- 1% accuracy. To comply with the 4 to 1 standard accuracy ratio for testers and wrenches, to test a wrench with +/- 1% you must use a tester with +/-.25 accuracy.
  • Page 17: Over Capacity Situations

    Owners Manual Over Capacity Situations Each Torq-Tronics 2 unit has a rated capacity that is easily visible on the front of the unit near the transducer. Tools should be tested that are between 10% and 75% of the rated capacity for the unit.
