(4) Press "Hz" button twice to change the display to the frequency display (Hz).
(5)
caution
  • The temperature of the surface of the belt should be as close to normal temperature as possible.
  • Do not allow any contaminants such as water or oil to get onto the microphone.
  • If strong gusts of wind blow against the microphone or if there are any loud sources of noise nearby, the values measured by the microphone may not correspond to actual values.
  • If the microphone is touching the belt while the measurement is being made, the values measured by the microphone may not correspond to actual values.
Hold the microphone to the middle of the belt between the pulleys (at the place indicated by arrow), approximately 10 - 15 mm away from the rear surface of the belt so that it is perpendicular to the belt (within an angle of ± 15 degree).
