Series F Test Frames + IntelliMESUR
®
Software User’s Guide
3 SETUP
3.1 Intended Use
Series F test frames with IntelliMESUR software are designed for tension and compression force
measurement applications. The test frame applies force, while a force sensor measures the applied
forces. IntelliMESUR software displays force and position information, and includes analytical tools to
help quality control, engineering, and manufacturing professionals determine the mechanical properties
and quality of their samples.
3.2 Moving the frame into position
Place the frame on a sturdy, clean, and level work area free from vibration.
In Models F755, F755S, F1505, and F1505S, a recessed lifting hook is located at the top of the column,
for ease of lifting, as shown below:
For Models F105, F305, F505, and F505H frames, orient the rear of the test frame towards the edge of a
table, tilt backwards, then lift underneath the base and underneath the rear of the column.
3.3 Mounting and placement
Place the test frame on a clean, flat and level work area free from vibration. Ensure that the rear of the
column is easily accessible, so that the power cord can be disconnected in an emergency.
It is suggested to mount the test frame to a work bench via screws fastened into the underside of the
base. Failure to properly mount the test frame may make it more vulnerable to tipping, especially if a
column extension is used, causing a hazardous situation.
3.4 Limit switches
Upper and lower limit switches are supplied to stop travel in both directions. They may be moved
up and down by loosening and tightening the thumb screws, as shown at left.
A dual-graduated inch/mm ruler adjacent to the limit switches can be helpful for positioning.
