1.2 Safety / Proper Usage 

 

Caution! 

Note the torque 

gauge’s capacity before use and ensure that the capacity is not exceeded. 

Producing a torque 

greater than 150% of the gauge’s capacity can damage the internal sensor. An 

overload can occur whether the gauge is powered on or off. 

 
Typical materials able to be tested include many manufactured items, such as springs, electronic 
components, fasteners, caps, mechanical assemblies, and many others. Items that should not be used 
with the gauge include potentially flammable substances or products, items that can shatter in an unsafe 
manner, and any other components that can present an exceedingly hazardous situation when acted 
upon by a force. 
 
The following safety checks and procedures should be performed before and during operation: 
 

1.  Never operate the gauge if there is any visible damage to the AC adapter or the gauge itself.  

 

2.  Ensure that the gauge is kept away from water or any other electrically conductive liquids at all 

times. 

 

3.  The gauge should be serviced by a trained technician only. AC power must be disconnected and 

the gauge must be powered off before the housing is opened. 

 

4.  Always consider the characteristics of the sample being tested before initiating a test. A risk 

assessment should be carried out beforehand to ensure that all safety measures have been 
addressed and implemented. 

 

5.  Wear eye and face protection when testing, especially when testing brittle samples that have the 

potential to shatter under force. Be aware of the dangers posed by potential energy that can 
accumulate in the sample during testing. Extra bodily protection should be worn if a destructive 
failure of a test sample is possible. 
 

6.  In certain applications, such as the testing of brittle samples that can shatter, or other applications 

that could lead to a hazardous situation, it is strongly recommended that a machine guarding 
system be employed to protect the operator and others in the vicinity from shards or debris. 
 

7.  When the gauge is not in use, ensure that the power is turned off.
