Betjeningsmanual til betonreboundhammer

1. Produktet er slutview

The HFBTE HT-225A Concrete Rebound Hammer is a non-destructive testing instrument designed to assess the compressive strength of concrete. It operates on the principle of rebound, where the rebound height of an impact hammer is proportional to the surface hardness and, consequently, the strength of the concrete.

This device is widely utilized in civil engineering and construction for evaluating the strength of various concrete members, including slabs, beams, columns, and trusses in normal building structures and bridges. Its simple structure, ease of calibration, maintenance, and portability make it an economical and practical choice for on-site non-destructive testing.

2.1. Udpakning og indledende inspektion

1. Carefully open the carrying case and remove all items.
2. Verify that the Concrete Rebound Hammer (HT-225A), operation manual, two screwdrivers, and grinding stone are present.
3. Inspect the hammer for any visible damage or defects.

2.2. Product Orientation

Familiarize yourself with the main parts of the rebound hammer. The device features a scale for reading rebound values and a mechanism for impact testing.

3. Betjeningsvejledning

The HT-225A is designed for straightforward operation to determine concrete strength.

3.1. Forberedelse af overfladen

Before testing, ensure the concrete surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Remove any loose particles, plaster, or paint. If the surface is rough, use the included grinding stone to smooth the test area.

3.2. Udførelse af en test

1. Hold the rebound hammer firmly with both hands, perpendicular to the concrete surface at the desired test point.
2. Apply steady pressure to the hammer against the surface. The internal mechanism will trigger, and the impact hammer will strike the concrete.
3. Observe and record the rebound number indicated on the scale.
4. Repeat the test at several points within the same test area (typically 9-12 impacts per area) to obtain an average rebound value. Avoid testing near edges or cracks.

3.3. Fortolkning af resultater

Use the conversion chart provided on the hammer or in the operation manual to convert the average rebound number into concrete compressive strength (N/mm² or MPa). Factors such as the angle of impact and concrete age may require adjustments as per relevant standards (e.g., ASTM C 805, EN 12504-2).

4. Vedligeholdelse

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your HT-225A Concrete Rebound Hammer.

4.1. Rensning

After each use, wipe down the hammer with a clean, dry cloth. Ensure no concrete dust or debris remains on the impact rod or inside the mechanism. The included screwdrivers can be used for minor disassembly for cleaning if necessary, as shown in Video 1.

4.2. Opbevaring

Store the hammer and all accessories in the provided carrying case in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

4.3. Kalibreringskontrol

Periodically check the calibration of the hammer using a standard test anvil. The mean-value of steel-anvil rating should be 80+/-2. If the readings deviate significantly, the hammer may require professional calibration or adjustment.

5. Fejlfinding

• Inkonsekvente læsninger: Ensure the concrete surface is properly prepared (smooth and clean). Verify the hammer is held perpendicular to the surface. Check for any internal debris or wear that might affect the mechanism.
• Hammer Not Rebounding: Check if the impact mechanism is stuck. Ensure the spring is not damaged or dislodged. Refer to the manual for internal component diagrams if necessary.
• Pointer System Issues: If the pointer system is not moving freely or has excessive friction, it may require cleaning or adjustment. The maximum breakout friction of the pointer system should be 0.49-0.78N (50-80g).
