Read the safety pracces and operang safety consideraons before operang the hydraulic

recommended safety pracces can result in serious personal injuries and/or damage to the

equipment!

Review these guidelines to ensure that your current operang procedures do not result in hazardous

situaons. Although all hazards may not be able to be eliminated, the following guidelines can be used to

idenfy hazards so that the proper training, operang procedures, and safety equipment can be implemented.

System operators should fully review the documentaon supplied to gain an understanding of the system

funcons. Figures will be placed throughout the manual and should be reviewed.

To ensure smooth system operaon during the rst execuon of the control soware, the user should be very

familiar with this secon and the specic test module to be used.

The following operang safety procedures are applicable to most tesng systems. The user is required to read

each item below and determine if it is applicable to the tesng system for which this hydraulic power supply

will be used. The user is also required to obtain and review all safety instrucons on specic tesng equipment

Interlock devices, such as the Emergency Stops, should always be used and properly adjusted.

Test all interlock devices immediately before each test. Because of the possibility of operator

error, system maladjustment, or component failure, interlock devices cannot be relied on to

protect personnel, unit under test, or test equipment. Thus, standard precauons about staying

clear of the ram should always be followed.

When system power is on, stay clear of each end of the actuator piston rod. The area on the

base plate used for component installaon should be worked around with cauon. Never place

any part of your body between the actuator piston rod and base plate when the hydraulic pres-

sure is on. Due to unit under test failure, operator error, or other factors, the actuator could

unexpectedly react and cause personal injury.

High forces and rapid moons are usually present in tesng systems. Unexpected actuator

responses can be very dangerous. Likely causes of dangerous actuator reacons are operator

error and equipment failure due to damaged or abused equipment. An actuator piston rod that

reacts suddenly can strike an operator installing a unit under test or damage the load cell or

expensive components. For the above reasons, anyone who operates, maintains, or modies

a system should read all provided manuals to acquire a thorough knowledge of the system’s

operang characteriscs.

Do not make mechanical, or soware adjustments to system components unless you know

exactly how the adjustment will aect system operaon. In many cases a slight adjustment can

CAUTION

If the control feedback signal is interrupted during operaon, the controller senses an error.

The actuator will aempt to correct the error by stroking at maximum force unl it reaches

an internal or external mechanical limit. The external mechanical limit may be any type of

obstrucon that is in the path of a stroking actuator (such as tools, specimens, or hands). Be

aware that the full force of the actuator will be applied to an external mechanical limit or

obstrucon. The only eecve way to minimize the stac force capability of a system is to reduce

the system hydraulic/pneumac pressure. The error detectors in the controller minimize the

potenal for device under test or equipment damage caused by loss of feedback or larger than

normal feedback errors.

Due to servo valve silng, an actuator can develop random instability or errac operaon

at unusually low hydraulic pressures, especially if the system uses large servo valves or the

hydraulic uid is dirty.



The failure or shuto of electrical power to the tesng system when pressure is being applied

can cause considerable and unpredictable actuator reacon. Under these condions, loss

of electrical power on servo controlled systems will generally cause the actuator to stroke

at maximum velocity in either direcon or, if a device under test is aached, to apply full

tensile or compressive force. Many systems contain hydraulic/pneumac accumulators that

store enough energy to temporarily operate the actuator at full force capacity even when the

hydraulic/pneumac pressure is shut o. For this reason, the usual interlock devices will not

prevent hazardous actuator stroking. If a power failure does occur, please make sure that Gold

Standard Soware has been reset before powering on the Load Frame. This will protect stop the

connuaon of the previous load selecon.

If servicing the interior components of the hydraulic power supply, power to the unit must be

turned o. Servicing the hydraulic power supply without turning the power o is very dangerous

The Interface Gold Standard Force Calibraon System provides an integrated force

calibraon soluon, making possible high accuracy calibraons. The system consists of a

hydraulic load frame, feedback control system, high accuracy load cell measurement and

soware tuned to automacally operate the load frame. When used in conjuncon with

the Interface 1600 or 1800 Series load cell standards, the system provides the user with an

accurate tool for easy and quick calibraon of load cells in tension or compression.

The system is the result of over two decades of experience to develop the hardware and

soware for high precision force calibraon. The load cell measurement includes signal

condioning circuitry for the transducer bridge, analog-to-digital converter, and logic

circuitry to interface with the PC. With an extremely high sensivity of 0.1 microvolt per

increment, extra low noise, and superior stability, the circuitry provides state-of-the-art

measurement of strain gage transducer signals.
