Principle
The sensor, through the presser button (1), the
presser (2) and the outer pads (3), applies a
constant force to the belt.
The reaction from the belt is measured using a
test piece (4) fitted with strain gauges.
Any movement on the gauges creates a variation
in their electrical resistance. This variation, once it
has been converted by the device, is displayed on
the display in SEEM units (US).Calibrating the device
The device is set in the factory; however it must be
recalibrated every six months.
Procedure
Resetting the zero:
- switch on the device (button E) with the presser
button (1) face down,
- if 0 is displayed, do not touch anything,
- if nothing is displayed, check the condition of
the 9 volt battery in the device ,
- if a value other than 0 is displayed, adjust screw
(F) until 0 is obtained.
