1. 1 Grip the shaft shown below with the spanner supplied 2 To secure the tip apply a torque of 6 to 8 cNm 2 Using a pair of soft jaw pliers grip the tip shaft Turn the pliers anti clockwise to loosen the probe tip CAUTION Overtightening of the stylus may cause damage to the probe Care must be taken when gripping the shaft to avoid damaging the mechanism 3 Continue to unscrew the probe tip anti clockwise until the tip has been removed 5 0 Mechanical Installation Part No 502565 Issue 4 5 0 Mechanical Installation continued 5 5 Side Load Care must be taken to minimise any side load applied to the stylus Excessive side loads may cause damage to the Lever Probe Figure 1 These side loads can generally be avoided by careful consideration to the use of the probes Figures 1 2 and 3 demonstrate this CAUTION Excessive side loads may cause damage to the Figure 2 Lever Probe Figure 3 5 0 Mechanical Installation Part No 502565 Issue 4 6 0 Use of the Lever Probe 6 1 Cosine Error As with other lever type transducers the Lever Probe is subject to a common source of error called Cosine error Cosine error occurs when the stylus is not set in the proper relationship to the part The stylus should be set parallel to the part surface so that its movement is essentially perpendicular to the part see figure 4 This is usually easy to arrange because th2. 6 DL 05 S solortron Digital Lever Probe metrology user manual C Index Section Title Page Section Title Page 1 0 NAEK icy ae oS ara 1 7 2 Mechanical use in 10 2 0 Safety Information 2 7 3 Environmental 2222200 10 3 0 ComponentsoftheLever Probe 3 7 4 Electrical Interface 11 4 0 CareoftheLeverProbe 4 8 0 Connections 12 5 0 Mechanical Installation 5 9 0 Outline Drawings 442 eee 13 9 1 Positioning nss rer 5 9 1 Mechanical Drawing 13 5 2 MOWING esse 5 5 3 Cable iisa a aa 5 Return Of Goods 5 4 StylusReplacement 6 Solartron Sales Offices 5 5 SideL03d uu una 7 6 0 UseoftheLeverProbe 8 6 1 Cosine EMM vai ernennen 8 7 0 Specifications ae 9 7 1 Measurement 00ceeee 0 9 Index Part No 502565 Issue 4 2 0 Safety Summary Terms in this Manual WARNINGS WARNING statements identify conditions or practices that Do not operate in explosive atmosphere could result in personal injury or loss of life To avoid explosion do not operate this equipment in an explosive atmosphere CAUTION statements identify conditions or practices that could result in damage to the equipment or other property NOTES This equipment contains no user serviceable parts This equipment must be returned to your Solartron dealer

Symbols in this manual for all servicing and repair N This symbol indicates where applicable cautionary or other information is to be found Low Voltage This equipment operates at below the SELV and is therefore outside the scope of the Low Voltage Directive 2 0 Safet 0 Safety Summary Part No 502565 Issue 4 3 0 Components of the Lever Probe Body ar Ball Tip Stylus Spring Relief Clutch Mechanism 0 ts of the L P O6 EEE 3 0 Components of the Lever Probe San NG 502565 sued 4 0 Care of the Lever Probe Care should be taken during installation to avoid dropping the probe or subjecting it to severe shock loads To minimise transducer failure due to cable damage cable runs should be positioned well clear of moving components and vulnerable working areas If the cable is in a flex situation then a minimum bend radius of 150mm should be maintained 4 0 Care of the Lever Probe ETTET AEE 5 0 Mechanical Installation The majority of problems experienced with applications and use are totally avoidable particularly if sufficient thought is given to the positioning and clamping methods employed 5 1 Positioning The Lever Probe is susceptible to some degree to the influence of magnetic fields and should therefore be positioned well away from electric motors relays and permanent magnets Where this is not possible magnetic shielding should be considered as an alternative 5 2 Mounting The
4. Lever Probe can be mounted directly into a 9 52mm hole If a high force is applied to the probe casing performance may be affected Ideally probes should be clamped in a yoke split or collar clamp If single point screw clamping is adopted then the maximum tightening torque applied should be 0 26Nm Alternatively mounting can be achieved using the 8mm peg mounting block or the industry standard dovetail mounting block 5 0 Mechanical Installation The small notch at the front of the probe can be utilised to mount the probe in the correct attitude This notch is in the same plane as the stylus movement m 7 8mm Peg Mount Dovetail Mount Part Number 804919 Part Number 804920 5 3 Cable The Lever Probe cable is custom made to achieve the optimum balance between flexibility flex life chemical resistance abrasion resistance and electrical screening To minimise transducer failure due to cable damage cable runs should be positioned well clear of moving components and vulnerable working areas If the cable is in a flex situation then a minimum bend radius of 150mm should be maintained If a cable is damaged itis not possible to repair it without affecting the probe calibration The cable must be replaced Part No 502565 Issue 4 5 0 Mechanical Installation continued 5 4 Stylus Replacement Stylus Installation Stylus Removal 1 Attach the tip by screwing clockwise into the transducer until it is finger tight
