  • Support "forged steel (Steel)" material
  • Test at any angle, even upside down.
  • Direct display of hardness scales HL, HB, HRB, HRC, HRA, HV,HS.
  • Large memory could store 500 groups including single measured value, impact direction, material and hardness scale etc.
  • User recalibration function allowed.
  • The 5 ordinary batteries, can work continuously for not less than 200 hours
  • Can communicate with PC computer for statistics and printing by the optional cable.
  • Manual or automatic shut down.
  • Low battery indication.

 Function characteristics:

  • Has a starting value software calibration function, ensure the data in any industry codes and standards applicable and accurate.
  • Hermetically sealed metal shell, solid and durable, has excellent resistance to vibration, shock and electromagnetic interference ability.
  • Menu operation, information rich, intuitive, the realization of arbitrary switching material and hardness of system's key type, simple and convenient.
  • Has the function of automatic alarm. Pre-set tolerance limit, beyond the range of automatic alarm, especially suitable for batch testing.
  • Convertible all hardness standards (HL, HB, HRB, HRC, HRA, HV, HS), without calculation.
  • Can be equipped with 7 different impact device, automatic identification, replaced without the need to calibrate, good compatibility.
  • Large screen liquid crystal display, a bright LED backlight, convenient in light gray environment.
  • Of automatic sleep, automatic shutdown, the remaining power prompt function, low power design.
  • With RS232 communication interface, can be convenient, fast exchange data with computer printing and parameter setting.
  • The 5 ordinary batteries, can work continuously for not less than 200 hours.

 Main Application:

  • Die cavity of molds.
  • Bearings and other parts.
  • Failure analysis of pressure vessel, steam generator and other equipment.
