1. Description 1.1 Introduction The magnet-strain sensors type QE-1008 are latest generation extensometers with two integrated super magnets to measure the bending compensated tie-bar elongation and/or load ( load: if two extensometers are used on one tie bar). The improved design does not only make the sensor shorter, but also increases the absolute accuracy. Therefore all the sensors are interchangeable.

3. Instructions IMPORTANT: These sensors are sensitive measuring instruments with a resolution of 0.001 mm (i.e.0.000004 mm respective to the gauge length). Please handle this instruments with the respective care. These instructions have to be read carefully by any user prior to application.

4. Measuring of load distribution (= load on each single tie bar) 4.1 Connect the sensors with the ‚Y’-cables to the digital monitor DU-4/D. The tie bar cable 1 should be connected to input 1 etc., switch on the monitor and push ‘RESET’. 4.2 Open and close the machine 2...4 times and press ‘RESET’...
6. General hints Do not close the machine with highest speed, as this may cause offset because of the strong vibration. If the display does consistently not display zero after releasing the reset button, (e.g. if it displays values between approx. ...
