Page 4: General
The WAGER Model 6500 Rack Mount Smoke Opacity meter is in full compliance with the requirements of SAE J1667 test criteria. It is specifically for dynomometer test cells and stationary testing of stack emissions. The LCD displays opacity in percentage value, and the analog output at the rear of the unit outputs 0-1 VDC that corresponds to a digital readout. -

Control Unit The control unit is operated by a membrane keypad, which consists of eight tactile feedback push buttons. The display is an alphanumeric LCD containing 16 characters by two rows. In low light situations, the display can be backlit. The display shows the prompts the operator follows throughout the test sequence(s). -

Water Chamber Flange The water chamber flange has two (2) retaining hooks that clip onto the optics. It contains a port for incoming flow of water, and one for outgoing. The flow of cold water reduces the temperature in the optics, and keeps them cool during lengthly testing procedures. -
Page 8: Technical Specifications
All solid state electronics. Manufactured by an ISO 9002 company. Applications The Model 6500 Smoke Meter can be used on any diesel engine, with primary application in testing trucks, busses, and cars. Contact WAGER for special applications, such as stand-by power, mining operations, railroad use, boating/maritime, industrial, etc. -
Page 9: Initial Installation
Initial Installation The inline optics require alignment once the stack piece is permanently mounted. In most application, the optics have a threaded air-chamber flange that screws onto the pipe of the stack. Positive pressure clean air hoses can be attached to the air flange to provide air flow keeping the internal glass free of soot and particles. -
Page 10: Optical Beam Alignment Procedure
Optical Beam Alignment Procedure Once the hoses, pipes and optics are mounted, removing the 3 screws and protective cover will expose the electronics and lens tube. Remove the protective cover on both the TX and RC. Inspecting this area, you will see a green circuit board mounted with 3 screws and also will see 3 larger screws that mount the lens tube in the optic housing. -
Page 11: Diagnostic Values
Diagnostic Mode Start with the control unit off. Hold the ZERO and START TEST buttons down while powering on. The control unit should display CONFIGURATION MODE. If not, turn the unit off and try again. Once you see CONFIGURATION MODE, release all buttons. Then press SELECT three times. -
Page 12: Adjustment
ADJUSTMENT Start on the transmitter. Inspect the value displayed and adjust the brass flat-head screw of the potentiometer on the circuit board. The potentiometer is a 20 turn device and has a self-protect mechanism. If you hear it click, you are at the limit and further turns will not affect the value. -
Page 13: Follow Mode Test
Follow Mode Test The “Follow” mode provides a means of providing a continuous “real life” opacity reading and performing tests under load, either on the road or on a dynamometer. To set the unit to the follow mode, turn the unit on. After seeing the date and time, the top line of the display will show the mode the unit is operating in. - Page 14 Analog Output The WAGER Model 6500 Smoke Meter outputs a 0 – 1 V signal through the banana jacks (located next to the AC power input plug). The output voltage reflects the opacity output where 0 V is 0 % opacity and 1 V...

Cleaning Lenses To assure regular easy access to the lenses, we have provided two snap closures. The lenses can be wipes with a soft cloth. We strongly recommend that a regular procedure of calibration and cleaning the lenses is established. During light use, a daily cleaning may be enough. During heavy testing, we recommend a frequent cleaning throughout the day. -
