FAQs of DIRECT READING GSM BALANCE-GRAMMAGE TESTER:
Q: How is the DIRECT READING GSM BALANCE-GRAMMAGE TESTER operated?
A: The tester operates manually, requiring no electrical power. Users place a 100 cm circular specimen (prepared according to standard GSM cutter dimensions) on the sample holder and set counterweights to calibrate the device. The quadrant balance provides a direct, immediate reading of the specimens GSM.
Q: What materials and applications is this balance tester suitable for?
A: This instrument is designed for measuring the grammage of paper and other flat sheet materials. Its compliant design makes it appropriate for civil engineering labs, quality control, and research facilities needing accurate GSM measurements.
Q: When is calibration necessary, and how is it performed?
A: Calibration should be performed before initial use and periodically thereafter using the provided standard weights. Place the calibration weight on the pan and adjust the balance until the pointer aligns with zero, ensuring measurement accuracy.
Q: Where should the device be placed for optimal results?
A: The tester is a tabletop model that should be positioned on a stable, level surface within a controlled environment, ideally at temperatures between 10C and 40C and humidity levels up to 85% RH (non-condensing). This ensures precise and reliable results.
Q: What is the process for measuring GSM with this tester?
A: First, cut a specimen of exactly 100 cm using a standard GSM cutter. Place the specimen on the pan, and the balances quadrant scale provides the direct reading of its GSM. No speed setting or electronic adjustments are required, making the process straightforward and efficient.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this GSM balance?
A: Key benefits include direct, highly accurate GSM readings (1 GSM), a corrosion-resistant build, no requirement for electricity, and immediate response time. Its sturdy construction and safety features make it practical for routine, long-term use in diverse laboratory settings.
