UNPACKING

ChemInstruments has made every effort to ensure that the HSR-2000 arrives at your

location without damage. Carefully unpack the instrument and check for any damage

that may have occurred during shipment. If any damage did occur during transit, notify

the carrier immediately.

The ChemInstruments HSR-2000 consists of the following parts:

•The test frame, which includes the motor/drive mechanism and the data

acquisition system.

•An envelope with this manual.

•Calibration wire.

•Power cord.

Make sure all of these components are present before discarding packaging material.

ASSEMBLY

Carefully remove the test frame/drive/data acquisition assembly from the packaging and

set them on a sturdy bench top. Check the physical dimensions listed previously for the

space required for the instrument. As with any precision piece of laboratory equipment,

it is preferable to locate the HSR-2000 in an area where temperature and humidity are

controlled to standard conditions of 72 ± 2 degrees Fahrenheit and 50 ± 5% relative

humidity.

CONNECTING THE POWER CORD

WARNING: Damage will occur if this unit is plugged into the incorrect

power supply. This is a dual voltage machine. Connect either 120 or 240

VAC.

Connect the power cord to its receptacle on the backside of the control cabinet at the far

right side when viewed from the rear. Complete the connection by inserting the male

end of the power cord into a convenient AC outlet. Notice that the on/off power switch

is located directly beside the power cord receptacle on the backside of the test frame.

WARNING: Before proceeding with using the HSR-2000, it is advisable

to become familiar with the Key Components. These Key Components

and a brief description of their function follow in the next section.

KEY COMPONENTS

•POWER SWITCH is located on the back panel of the control cabinet directly

beside the power cord connection.(See Figure 2)

•LOAD CELL measures the forces involved with a High Speed Release test.

•LOAD CELL ASSEMBLY consists of the mounting bracket for the load cell with

grip.

•GRIP secures the free end of the test strip to the load cell.

•CALIBRATION BRACKET and CALIBRATION WIRE are used in the load cell

calibration process.

•DRIVE WHEEL determines the speed of separation during the test.

•PINCH ROLLER pinches the test specimen against the Drive Wheel in order to

separate the test specimen.

High Speed Release Tester Operating Instructions (HSR-2000)

OPERATION

The release liner of a pressure-sensitive adhesive laminate sample is removed at high

speed in order to simulate production conditions. This is accomplished by peeling the

release liner or the adhesive substrate at a 180-degree angle and at a selected speed

(from 30 – 1,000 feet per minute). An electronic load cell measures the release force,

then feeds the information to a data acquisition unit. The data acquisition unit collects

the test data from the load cell and stores this information in memory for use in

calculating the maximum, minimum and average values.

The HSR-2000 is designed to regulate the speed of the load cell’s sampling in

accordance with the speed of the test. The rate of data sampling will be adjusted to

provide 400 data samples regardless of the test speed. The setting of the speed does

the adjustment of the sampling rate automatically.

POWER UP

WARNING: Operating temperature for this equipment is 32 to 150 degrees

Fahrenheit (0 to 70 degrees Celsius). The equipment needs to be

completely free of condensation, inside and out, before applying power.

Turn on the master power switch located on the back panel of the control cabinet next

to the power line receptacle. The internal control board will go through a self-test.

GRIP OPERATION

The grip opens by pinching the top lever. Insert the free end of the sample into the

open grip while pinching the top lever. The spring action of the grip will close the top

jaw of the grip down to the bottom.

NOTE: The grip is attached directly to the load cell. Do not move the grip

sideways or up and down. When opening and closing the grip, support it with

one hand and operate the lever with the other hand to avoid damaging the load

cell. For proper operation of the load cell it is necessary for the grip to be

mounted with a space between the load cell housing and the grip. DO NOT

TIGHTEN THE GRIP AGAINST THE LOAD CELL HOUSING.

WARNING: Rotating the Grip on the threaded mounting rod, causing the

Grip to come in contact with the wall of the load cell housing will

damage the load cell. There must be a physical gap maintained

between the Grip and the load cell housing for the load cell to function

correctly.
