Digital Barcol Hardness Tester	According to DIN EN 59 and ASTM D 2583
The new generation of HPE offers extended range of applications as well as data logger and a new
innovative radio data communication feature, which makes the HPE Series the most technologically
advanced digital durometers on the market at a reasonable price.
HPE II can be conveniently used in any vertical or horizontal position, and also in hard to reach areas.
This unit can be used with the optional test stand as a bench-top laboratory Shore durometer.
The patented pressing mechanism, integrated into the HPE, ensures a constant contact pressure
according to standard, eliminating measuring errors caused and influenced by tiiting or slope contact.
The electronics is made into a robust and rugged aluminum shell, while the operation is done via a
clearity arranged keyboard with an easy to read display. With using two buttons, the instrument is
switched on and off and the measuring time can be adjusted from zero to 99 s. A flashing display
indicates the current real-time measurement; while a beep signal announces the end of the measurement.
The measured value will be shown on the display until the next measurement, and subsequently
the measured value can be transferred to PC or printer via the RS232-interface.
An easy to exchange battery with a lifetime of more than 2000 hours is the source of energy for HPE
A durable case, a PC cable and a detailed operating manual is included as the standard configuration.
As a data-logging option, the users can store up to 200 measured values per series of measurements
for statistical evaluations. In total 10 series of measurements are available, and data transfer to a
serial printer or PC is also possible.
As optional accessory you can have attachable prisms for hardness test on rollers and/or round cords.
