Operation
The Shore durometer has to be fixed on the test stand by the installation pole. The hardness testing block has t o be put onto the glass stage. Then the operating handl e has to be pressed by poise to place the durometer tip into the hole of the block until the foot of the durometer touches the testing block completely. At this time, the hardness value on the dial should be within ± 1 of the signed value on the block (side below). If the value is not 100±1, the adjust ing nut under the glass stage has to be adjus ted to m ake the value turn to 100±1. If the durometer is used without hardness block, the operating handle also has to be pressed by pois e to place the durometer tip on the glass stage, touching it completely. Here, t he hardness value on the dial should be within 100±1. If not, it s hould be adjusted by the adjust ing nut under the glass stage to make the value turn to 100±1. The testing material has to be put on the glass stage, the operation handle has to be moved down by force of the designation weight. When the durometer touches the test material completely, the value appears on the dial. The reading value time of thermoplastic rubber is 15 seconds, vulcanised rubber or other unknown rubbers is 3 seconds. The Shore C model is able to read the value within 1 second after the durometer has touched the material completely.
Caution
1. This test stand can only be applied for Shore durometers. If it is installed with different durometers, the quality of weight first has to be adjusted according to the requirements. GB/T531.1-2008 has a rule for the adjustment of total quality as shown below:
TI-BA-e-1310 1
Note: Total quality includes quality of lock screws, designation weight, screw, installation pole and durometer.
2. It has to be applied in environm ent without shock, the max. pressing speed of the test should not be above
3.2mm/s.
Maintenance
The test stand had to be cleaned after using it with a smooth cloth to avoid rust.
