The Surftest SJ-310 is a compact, portable, easy-to-use
surface roughness measurement instrument equipped
with extensive measurement and analysis features.
Easy to useEnhanced power for making measurements on site
Large color graphic LCD
The color touch-screen provides excellent
readability and an intuitive display that is easy
to negotiate. The LCD also includes a backlight
for improved visibility in dark environments.
The integrated printer allows you to print
measurement results on the spot.
Highly functional
Internal memory
Up to 10 measurement conditions and one measured
profile can be stored in the internal memory.
Optional memory card
The optional memory card can be used as an
extended memory to store large quantities of
measured profiles and conditions and adds the
convenience of automatically saving data from
he 10 most recent measurements (Trace 10).
t
Password protection
Access to each feature can be password-protected,
which prevents unintended operations and allows
protection of your settings.
Multilingual support
The display interface supports 16 languages, which
can be freely switched.
Stylus alarm (patent pending in Japan, U.S.A., EU)
An alarm warns you when the cumulative
measurement distance exceeds a preset limit.
Despite its reduced charging time — approximately 1/4 that required for conventional
models, the Surftest SJ-310 is capable of making approximately 2.5 times the number
of measurements when fully charged. The detector supports a variety of measurement
orientations and can make measurements up against a wall surface or while facing upward.
When combined with optional accessories such as a height gauge adapter, the detector can
make measurements in various orientations and settings.
Extensive analysis and display features
Complies with many industry standards
The Surftest SJ-310 complies with the following
standards: JIS (JIS-B0601-2001, JIS-B0601-1994, JIS
B0601-1982), VDA, ISO-1997, and ANSI.
Displays assessed profiles and graphical data
In addition to calculation results, the Surftest SJ-310
can display sectional calculation results and assessed
profiles, load curves, and amplitude distribution curves.

User friendly, high-functionality display unit with integrated high-speed printer
The large 5.7-inch color graphic touch-screen LCD provides excellent readability. Furthermore, selecting icons from the touch panel display*
provides intuitive and easy operation. The integrated high-speed printer also allows the user to perform the entire process from making
measurements to printing the results with the push of a single button (START button).
Printer
BAC and ADC curves can be printed in addition
t
o calculation results (including pass/fail results)
and assessed profiles. The printer offers an
easy-to-understand layout and can also print
horizontally to match the content displayed on the
LCD. Furthermore, printing speed is approximately
50% faster than conventional models.
Built-in battery
With drastically enhanced power compared
to conventional models, the Surftest SJ-310
can make 1,500 continuous measurements
on a full charge achieved in 4 hours.
Highly functional detectors and drive units

Links to a wide variety of external instruments
You can save parameter recalculations and measurement results in text format on a memory card and import into commercial spreadsheet software
on a PC. You can also connect to a PC using the USB connector and use a dedicated software application to
perform everything from measurement control and condition modification to issuing inspection result reports.

Measurement results can be displayed in several ways
Measurement results can be presented in the form of a 1-parameter, profile, 4-parameter or trace display.
1-parameter display: one parameter
measurement result
Profile display: one parameter measurement
result and the measured profile
4-parameter display: four parameter
measurement results
Trace display: the ten latest measurement
results using the same parameter
Recalculation function
After completing measurement, you can modify the assessment conditions (standard, profile, and parameter) and easily recalculate the results using
the new condition.* *
Not possible with all measurement conditions.
Dual assessment of a single measurementStylus alarm function
Usingtheresultofasinglemeasurement,youcanmakecalculationsor
analyze assessment profiles under two different assessment conditions
(standard, profile, filter, etc.) without using the recalculation feature.
Displayedsettingscanbeeasilychangedbypressingtheleftand right
arrow keys under the sliding cover. For example, these keys can be used
to switch the cut-off value(λc) and the number of sampling lengths (N)
on the measurement screen. (Patent pending in Japan.)
Positive stylus contact indication
Stylus contact with the workpiece is indicated by color coding
in the display. This is helpful when visibility of the surface to be
measured is restricted (e.g. when measuring within a shrouded
feature or groove).
No contact Contac t
Extensive statistical processing features
Youcanmakeamaximumof300statisticalmeasurementsusingup to three
parameters to obtain averages, standard deviations, maximums, minimums,
passing rates, and histograms (upper and lower limits can be displayed).
This feature is ideal for day-to-day data management.
