INTRODUCTION
The Professional Torque Tester (Pro-Test) has been designed as an accurate, cost effective
and easy to operate instrument for testing and calibrating all types of torque wrenches and torque
limiting screw drivers.
Pro-Test transducers are mounted in aluminium cast housings along with all the necessary
electronics to produce an output for the display module and RS-232-C interface. The housings can
be mounted for either horizontal, clockwise, or anti-clockwise torque testing.
The function of the front panel buttons is identified on the display to facilitate quick and easy
selection of the operating mode most suitable for the tool to be tested, i.e. track, peak memory with
manual reset, peak memory with auto reset, first peak memory with manual reset, or first peak
memory with auto reset. These buttons are also used to drive the Set-up Menus if changes to the
operational parameters of the Pro-Test are required. These include, language of operation,
measurement units to be enabled/disabled, RS-232-C communication parameters, auto reset hold
time, first peak memory sensitivity and modes of operation to be enabled/disabled. The Zero button is
only active in the track mode.
Pro-Test transducers are calibrated in the clockwise direction only as standard, the anti-
clockwise direction of operation will be inhibited unless the transducer has been additionally calibrated
in this direction. The direction of use is identified on the display and RS232C output
Optional extra’s include a Mounting Bracket, 1” sq x 36mm Hex Socket, Print Inhibit
Controller, Data Printer and 12 Volt DC power supply for use in vehicles.
