1 ABOUT YOUR TESTER

The Elcometer 3000 Clemen Unit is a robust and simple-to-use instrument for

evaluation of the resistance to scratching of a coated surface. The sample can

be metal, wood, glass, plastic or other hard materials.

A tool fitted with a hemispherical ball is lowered gradually onto the surface of

the sample and moved in a straight line a distance of 60 mm (2.4"). The

downward force exerted by the tool onto the surface is adjustable by means of

a sliding weight.

Depending on the purpose of the test and the force applied, varying degrees of

penetration of the tool into the coating are observed, from a superficial trace to

total destruction.

The Elcometer 3000 is available in two versions; the original Manual Clemen

Unit and the Motorised Clemen Unit.

•Elcometer 3000/1 Manual Clemen Unit. The sample is clamped to a sliding

platform which is moved manually.

•Elcometer 3000/3 Motorised Clemen Unit. The sample is clamped to a fixed

platform. At the press of a button, the tool is moved across the sample and

stops automatically at the end of its travel. Contact between the tool and a

metallic sample is indicated by a lamp and voltmeter.

1.1 Standards

The Elcometer 3000 Clemen Unit can be used in accordance with the following

National and International Standards:

AS/NZS 1580.403.1 EN13523-12 supersedes ECCA T12

3 TESTING A SAMPLE - MANUAL CLEMEN UNIT

Before the sample can be tested, adjust the height of the tool:

3.1 Adjusting the tool

1. Place the sample onto the sample platform and fix in position by rotating the

clamp handle.

2. Lift and hold the load beam in its raised position and slide the sample

platform until the centre of the sample is underneath the tool (Figure 3).

3. Insert the metal shim between the nylon wheel (1) and the load beam and

then lower the load beam.

Figure 3. Adjusting the scratching tool

4. Adjust the height of the tool (2) until it is touching the surface of the sample

and then tighten the knurled wheel (3) to lock the tool in position.

5. Raise the load beam, remove the metal shim and slide the sample platform

back to its starting position.

6. Slide the weight along the load beam to the required load and lock in place

by tightening the knurled wheel. The load can be set from 0 g to 2000 g

(0 lb to 4.4 lb).

3000_TMA_0326_00_02.fm Page 6 Monday, January 19, 2009 2:35 PM

The instrument and sample are now ready for the test to be carried out

(Figure 4).

Figure 4. Manual Clemen Unit ready for test

3.2 Test procedure

1. Pull the sample platform towards you in a single smooth action (Figure 4);

the standard speed of movement is approximately 30 mm/s (1.2"/s).

The tool will lower down onto the sample at the start of the test and raise up

at the end of the test.

2. Inspect the sample for damage in accordance with the requirements of the

test standard. Repeat the test as necessary, increasing the loading

between tests.

4 TESTING A SAMPLE - MOTORISED CLEMEN UNIT

Before the sample can be tested, adjust the height of the tool:

4.1 Adjusting the tool

1. Connect the unit to the mains supply and press the Power On/Off button.

2. Place the sample onto the sample platform and fix in position by rotating the

clamp handle.

3. Lift and hold the load beam in its raised position.

4. Press the Start button (Figure 2). Wait until the tool is halfway through its

travel and then press the Power On/Off button to stop the tool in this

position.

5. Insert the metal shim between the nylon wheel (1) and the load beam and

then lower the load beam.

Figure 5. Adjusting the scratching tool

6. Adjust the height of the tool (2) until it is touching the surface of the sample

and then tighten the knurled wheel (3) to lock the tool in position.

7. Raise the load beam, remove the metal shim and while supporting the

beam, press the Power On/Off button and then the Start button to return the

tool to the starting position.

Supporting the load beam while the tool is moving to its starting position

prevents damage to the sample surface, the tool or the sample platform.
