This equipment uses a built-in nickel-metal hydride battery.
One of the characteristics of the nickel-metal hydride battery is self-discharge that is after the battery has been charged, it will naturally discharge itself over time.
This means that even when the equipment is not used, the battery voltage continues to drop gradually due to self-discharge and finally the battery will discharge completely.
If the battery has discharged completely, the battery will deteriorate and its charging capacity will decrease or charging itself may be disabled.
In order to prevent such problems, be sure to charge the battery fully after the equipment was purchased.
Also when the equipment is not to be used for a long period of time, be sure to charge the battery once every 3 months.
When a force exceeding about 110% of the allowable maximum force is applied to the measuring shaft, the display will show“O.L.” and a measured value alternately and the warning buzzer will sound. If this happens, immediately stop applying a force.
Continuing the application of a force to the measuring shaft will dam
- A large capacity 2 kN type. Capable of measuring a force in a place where no power supply is available.
- The separate construction poses little restriction on measuring places to select.
