Effortless Grain Hardness MeasurementThis tester enables quick and accurate hardness assessment of single grain samples, using a reliable analog dial and sturdy pointer scale. Its manual knob adjustment and strain gauge load cell provide consistent results without needing electricity, perfect for field or lab use. The corrosion-resistant construction ensures durability, while its lightweight and portable design support easy transportation.
User-Friendly and Reliable BuildFeaturing a robust metallic case with a chrome finish, the tester is built to withstand regular handling in industrial and agricultural settings. The glass-protected 80 mm analog dial enhances readability while the rubber gasket seals out dust and moisture, maintaining the instruments accuracy in varying atmospheric pressures.
FAQs of Grain Hardness Tester:
Q: How do I use the Grain Hardness Tester to measure grain hardness?
A: To use the Grain Hardness Tester, place a single grain sample in the test slot, manually adjust the knob to apply force, and observe the hardness value indicated on the analog dial display. The strain gauge load cell ensures accurate measurement within the 0-20 kg/cm range.
Q: What sample size can this tester accommodate during each test?
A: This tester is designed specifically for single grain analysis, ensuring precise and repeatable hardness results for each individual grain tested.
Q: When should the manual adjustment knob be used?
A: The manual knob must be used every time you begin a new test. Turning the knob applies controlled pressure to the grain sample, enabling the pointer scale to register the specific hardness value for that grain.
Q: Where is the best environment to operate this tester?
A: The optimal working environment is anywhere within a temperature range of 0C to 50C under normal atmospheric pressure. The corrosion-resistant build and portable carry box make it suitable for both laboratories and on-site field use.
Q: What process does the Grain Hardness Tester use to determine hardness?
A: The tester operates by applying pressure via a manually controlled knob. The strain gauge load cell quantifies the force required to break or deform the grain, which is then translated to a corresponding value on the analog dial scale.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this mechanical hardness tester?
A: Key benefits include its portability, reliable mechanical operation (no power needed), corrosion-resistant finish, user-friendly adjustment, and high accuracy (1% F.S.), making it ideal for quick, on-the-spot grain hardness assessments.
Q: Can this tester be maintained easily for long-term usage?
A: Yes, the testers robust design with stainless steel and hardened steel contacts, chrome finish, and rubber gasket seals allows for easy cleaning and long-term durability, requiring minimal maintenance.
