Page 29: Calibration Adjustment
Calibration Adjustment Press “Start Test”. Press the 3 lines, top right to switch control mode The 3 lines will change to an “X”. Press “Operation mode”. www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk... - Page 30 Select “Calibration mode”. Firstly, you will see 0 and 2000kN, these are the default points. When you have added a point it will be displayed. The first point must be “0”. www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk...
- Page 31 You can press for 0kN at any time but the closer you push the piston to the sample, the better. For 0kN you have to enter “0”. Then it goes to next point (50kN). You can follow the value of the load by pressing measurement. www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk...
- Page 32 When the load is 50kN, it will be constant. Enter the value displayed from the calibration load cell at this point, (for example: 52.3kN). Repeat for each point. www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk...
- Page 33 Once all points are entered, adjustment is complete. After the adjustment operation, you will see a graph with a line and points. The closer the points are to the line, the better the calibration. www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk...

Page 34: Calibration Control
Calibration Control Press “Start Test”. Press and enter the destination point and speed. (The point you want to check, e.g. 50kN). After that press start www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk... - Page 35 When the load reaches 50kN, check the readout from the calibration load cell, they should be the same. Then enter the second point that you want to check. www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk...
- Page 36 When the load reaches the second point, check the readout from the calibration load cell. They should be the same. Repeat this operation for each point you wish to check. If the machine display and the calibration load cell show display the same loads, the calibration is correct. www.impact-test.co.uk www.impact-test.com www.impact-testsets.co.uk...
