Figure 85 - Wbv Transducer Removal - Castle group Excieo GA2005H Operating Manual

KD1009 requires specialised equipment and should be returned to Castle's
calibration laboratory for correct calibration.
Once calibrated, the axis coefficients will be saved until the next calibration.
For automatic calibration of WBV the transducer (KD1007) must be removed
from the seat pad. This is achieved by removing the top cover plate of the seat
pad by unscrewing the four visible screws. The top cover plate has the
description and serial number etched on it.
The centre screw on the underside now needs removing to allow the transducer
to be freed from the seat pad. Carefully slide the cable and transducer through
the seat pad until an adequate length is free to allow calibration. The illustration
below shows the front plate and transducer removed from the seat pad.

NEVER attach or remove a transducer to / from a mounting plate whilst the
mounting plate is attached to the calibrator. Always remove the mounting plate
first, attach or remove the transducer and then screw the mounting plate to the
calibrator. Failure to do so may result in permanent damage to your vibration
calibrator and invalidate its warranty.
NEVER use the cable clamp as leverage when fastening or removing your
transducer, doing so may result in damage to your cable which may lead to
incorrect measurement results being obtained.
Once calibration of the WBV seat pad is completed, re-assembly is required.
Ensure that the transducer is fitted with the etching towards the top plate.
When fitting the top plate ensure that the axis orientation on the cover plate
etching matches the orientation of those on the transducer.
Incorrect seat pad assembly whereby axis orientation of cover plate and
transducer are not aligned may result in incorrect axis readings whilst
measuring or recording.
