Safety Messages

! DANGER

▲

! WARNING

▲

! CAUTION

▲

Safety messages are provided to help prevent personal injury
and equipment damage. All safety messages are introduced by
a signal word indicating the hazard level. The types of safety

messages are:

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury
to the operator or to bystanders.

Indicates a potential hazard which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury to the
operator or to bystanders.

Indicates a potential hazard which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury to the
operator or to bystanders.

WARNING

The three-part message panel, used with safety messages,
uses three different type styles to further define the potential
hazard:

• Normal type states the hazard,

• Bold type states how to avoid the hazard, and

• Italic type states the possible consequences of not avoiding
the hazard.

Some safety messages contain visual symbols with signal
words.

Example:

Flying particles can discharge when applying torque.

• Users and bystanders must wear safety goggles.

• Always wear safety goggles when applying torque.

Flying particles can cause injury.

Safety Information

WARNING

WARNING

Risk of electric shock and fire.

• For indoor use only. Do not expose charger to
rain or snow. Do not use in damp locations.

• Replace defective cord immediately. Return to
qualified service center for replacement.

Electric shock or fire can cause injury.

Flying particles can discharge when applying torque.

• Users and bystanders must wear safety goggles.

• Always wear safety goggles when applying torque.

• Do not use this equipment with the power off.
Always turn on the indicator and loader so the

display. The safety relays only work when the
power is on.

Flying particles can cause injury.

WARNING

WARNING

Risk of entanglement.

• When starting power tools, check for obstacles
near your hand and anticipate the reaction force
by gripping the tool firmly.

• Do not wear loose clothing and jewelry while
operating a power tool. Loose clothes and jewelry
can be caught in moving parts.

• Keep body parts away from rotating parts.

• Wear a protective hair covering to contain long
hair and prevent contact with moving parts.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.

Entanglement can cause injury.

Improper use can cause breakage.

• Read instructions before operating.

• Follow manufacturer’s instructions, safety
precautions, and specifications when operating
tools.

Broken equipment can cause injury.

II

WARNING

Safety Information

• Make sure all components, including, adaptors,
extensions, drivers and sockets are rated to
match or exceed the torque or load being applied.

• Be sure the capacity of the MULTITEST system
matches or exceeds each application before
performing a procedure.

• Do not use the MULTITEST system if it makes
unusual noises, has loose parts, or shows any
other sign of damage. Have repairs performed at
an Authorized Service Center before use.

• Do not use chipped, cracked, or damaged sockets
and accessories.

• Do not remove any labels. Replace any damaged
la bel.

• Follow good, professional tool practices:
— Pull on a wrench handle—do not push—and

adjust stance to prevent a possible fall.

— Do not use extensions, such as a pipe, on a

wrench handle.

• When using ratchets, make sure the direction
lever is fully engaged in the correct position.

• Never attempt to test an impact tool on this
instrument.

• Always position the 40" arm over the front of the
stand as shown. Never extend the test arm
behind the stand. The stand will tip over when
weights are applied.

• Always be alert to the potential for personal injury
that may be caused by excessive torque
applications, careless handling of heavy weights,
and out-of-balance or unsafe weight distribution.

Introduction

The MULTITEST Indicator is a laboratory grade instrument that
provides TORQUE, FORCE and ANGLE of rotation
measurements and set-able alert functions. Although designed
as an integral component of the MULTITEST Torque Calibration
System, it can also be used independently in many laboratory
and industrial applications. The MULTITEST In dicato r features
versatile date acquisition capabilities including measurement
storage, retrieval, statistical analysis and automatic
downloading to the built-in printer or external printer/computer.
A remote computer COM port is available for PC interfacing.

Used with precision torque/force transducers, the MULTITEST
Indicator provides high speed monitoring of static or dynamic
torque, force or angle inputs. Torque/force transducers,
purchased separately, are available in ranges from 15-200 in oz,
to 200-2000 ft lb, and provide system readings with an
accuracy of +/- 0.25% of indicated value, or better. A special
memory chip is built into each torque/force transducer that
identifies its range and maintains its calibration between any
other MULTITEST Indicator with an accuracy of + / - 0.5%. The
indicator and its transducers may be calibrated by using
accessory precision bars and certified weights.

1

The indicator features a bright red alpha-numeric LED display
for readout of torque in ft lb, in lb, in oz, Nm, dNm, cNm, mkg
and cmkg, or force in ounces, pounds, Newtons, decaNewtons,
kiloponds (kilograms) or grams, depending upon the transducer
in use.

Angle measurement, calibration, statistical analysis and set-up
functions are reported on a 2-line by 16-character 5x8 dot
matrix, backlighted LCD, display. A Torque-Angle mode can be
set up for precision fastener installation monitoring. The
MULTITEST Indicator uses X4 quadrature logic that takes
advantage of maximum resolution from industry standard
bidirectional rotary encoders.

1-1

Introduction

Set-up and calibration programming is entered on front panel
membrane keys. HIGH and LOW torque limits are adjustable to
give an audible alert. The user selects TRACK mode to display
torque values as they are applied, PEAK HOLD or POWER
TOOL modes to display the highest torque value applied, or
FIRST PEAK mode which captures the torque output at the
“click” of a set-able wrench or driver. CLEAR, STORE and
PRINT functions can be set up for automatic or manual
operation.

The indicator stores and recalls up to 3000 torque/force
readings and does statistical analysis on them for downloading
to printer or computer. The statistical report (print out) includes
a simple histogram for process monitoring. True RS-232 serial
printer and separate RS-232 computer COM ports are at the
back of the unit.

The MULTITEST Indicator operates from the AC power line and
is switch selectable for either 120VAC or 220 VAC, 50–60 Hz.
Its integral switching power supply is UL listed. A hard-wired
lithium battery keeps the internal memory and date-time clock
operating for up to 10 years.

The information in this manual is general. Operational features,
procedures and specifications may change without notice. CDI
makes no claims as to the suitability of this information for
diverse user applications.

Functional Description and Specifications

MULTITEST Torque/Force Transducers

MULTITEST torque/force transducers provide industry standard
internal square drives. They feature a full bridge strain-gauge
@ 350 Ohms nominal. Full range output is 1500 µE, 9mV,
(3mV/V @ 3.0V excitation).

Torque/force transducers use a built-in EEPROM memory chip
that stores range identification and calibration factors.
Calibration of transducers is accomplished using precision
torque bars and certified weights. For additional information,
refer to Chapter 5—Calibration .

After a transducer is calibrated, it provides +/-0.5% system
accuracy with any MULTITEST Indicator. If the transducer and
indicator are calibrated together, the system accuracy increases
to +/-0.25%.

Calibration also results in a specified display resolution on the
MULTITEST Indicator. Display resolution is dependent on the
type of transducer being used. The following table shows

MULTITEST torque/force transducers can withstand an overload
of 110% of full range. The MULTITEST Indicator alarms, (audible
beep and display "OVER" red LED) at 110% of rated capacity.

To protect the tool under MULTITEST Indic a t o r or serve as a
fastener installation, torque preset alert, the MULTITEST
produces a constant audible tone when the input torque/force
exceeds the SET LOW limit. It then produces a pulsating tone
when the input torque/force exceeds the SET HIGH limit.

The MULTITEST Indicator ignores inputs less than 0.1% of full
range in TRACK mode, 2% in PEAK HOLD mode, 7% in FIRST
PEAK and POWER TOOL modes. With the 4-in-1 transducer,
the MULTITEST System ignores inputs less than 2% of full
range after scan select.
