TNP Digital Torque Meter
Operation Manual
Do not attempt to repair or alter this instrument. Warranty will be voided
and damage to the unit may result.
Use and store within the stated temperature and humidity ranges, or
damage and failure may result.
Ensure during testing unit is properly used on a stable, level surface.
Do not test products that are filled with liquid as the TNP torque tester is
not protected from liquid spills.
Only use electrical charger supplied with unit.
The Series TNP Digital Torque Meter is a precision instrument for
measuring OPEN and CLOSE torque values for various applica-
tions. The TNP Torque Meter is used in medical, pharmaceutical,
industrial quality control, R&D and countless other torque appli-
cations.
As a cap torque analyzer, the TNP repeatedly determines bottle
closure and breakaway torque. Its wide memory capacity is ca-
pable of storing 1,000 data points, including Average, Maximum
and Minimum values. A HI-GO-LO LED comparator feature can be
utilized for large batch testing to ensure overall product quality.
The TNP is a portable device powered with internal rechargeable
batteries or through provided universal AC adapter/charger.
Designed with a small footprint, it can easily be transferred be-
tween the shop floor and laboratory taking up little space when
operating. The TNP Torque Meter comes standard with USB con-
nection and cable for easy PC/Software interface. Combined with
the free "Digitorq" Software, statistical testing, graphing and anal-
ysis can be performed.
Each package includes the following:
• Operations Manual
• Software Installation Disk (Digitorq Software)
• Warranty Card
• USB A to USB B communication cable
• Universal AC adapter (100-240 VAC)
• Set of 30 mm chuck pins (4 pieces)
• TNP unit
