Page 21: First Commissioning
Before first commissioning the sieve clamping unit must be installed. The AS 300 control is suitable for test sieves of 100 mm to 305 mm outer diameter. For test sieves with diameters of 100 – 203 mm, the two inner threaded holes are used for the support or threaded rods. -
Page 22: Sieve Clamping Unit "Standard
For test sieves with outer diameters of 100 – 203 mm smaller clamping lids must be used. For further information please contact your supplier or get in touch with Retsch GmbH directly.

Page 23: Sieve Clamping Unit "Comfort
First Commissioning NOTICE To clamp a maximum of five test sieves and a collecting pan, shorter threaded rods are available for the sieve clamping unit "standard". For sieving processes with only one to three test sieves, the shorter threaded rods should be used. Long, projecting threaded rods disturb the spreading of the sample material due to their natural vibration behaviour. - Page 24 First Commissioning Fig. 8: Installation of the sieve clamping unit "comfort" Place the desired sieve stack including the sample material centrally on the sieve plate (ST). Place the assembled clamping lid on the support rods (E) with the quick clamping units facing upwards.

The tolerance of the sieve stack mass amounts ± 5 %. The best results are generally achieved with amplitudes from 1.0 to 1.5 mm.

Page 34: Time
With the AS 300 control the amplitude is defined as the total lifting height (SH) of the test sieve. For example, with a set amplitude of 1.2 mm, the test sieve is displaced in the range of -0.6 mm and +0.6 mm around the zero point (= stationary sieve plate (ST)). -
