1. Introduction

1.1.

Thank you for choosing the CENTOR FIRST II force gaughe manufactured by ANDILOG Technologies to

perform your measurements.

This instrument is the result of over 35 years of experience in force and torque measurement. It

integrates the latest technologies available to offer you industrial level performance and measurement

quality.

The Centor First is equipped with a learning battery management component. This component updates

itself in real time according to the wear of the battery. It is possible that on the first few

charge/discharge cycles the percentage of battery remaining is not very accurate. This accuracy

improves after a few cycles and will update throughout the life cycle of the battery.

The battery life is 15 hours in normal operation. The force gauge must be charged when the battery is

empty after normal use. If the force gauge is not used for a long period of time, it should be kept with

a battery charge between 30 and 80% of its autonomy.

It is recommended to use the original power supply provided by Andilog to charge your instrument.

The power supply must have the following characteristics: micro USB, 5V, 1A minimum.

Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may need to be replaced. Battery

life and number of charge cycles will vary depending on usage and settings.

Never connect accessories or fixtures (hook, tray...) directly to the load cell. Use the

extension cable supplied with your instrument.

Despite the overload protection provided by this instrument, the application of a force

greater than the capacity of the load cell can damage the force gauge. The force gauge

is equipped with an overload counter which allows to know the conditions of use of

the device

It is important that the measured values are generally below 90% of the sensor's capacity. Constant

use of the load cell beyond 90% of its capacity can result in premature wear of the load cell. When the

force gauge is used on a motorized frame, it is necessary to program the frame to stop when the force

approaches the maximum capacity of the sensor. This limit must take into account the fact that at a
