Contact us to purchase the PosiTector RTR 3D or any other DeFelsko products. How to use the PosiTector RTR 3D? Step 1: Preparation of both the surface to be tested and the PosiTector RTR H are necessary before performing the test. To prepare the surface: Use cleaning putty to remove dust, debris, or residual blast media from the measurement site by firmly pressing the putty onto the surface to be tested using your fingers and remove To prepare the PosiTector RTR H: Clean anvils using included cleaning card. Swipe the card through the opening a few times while firmly pressing both probe buttons to remove dust Zero probes and verify the accuracy with included shim Ensure the correct grade of replica tape is displayed in the upper left-hand corner of the LCD Step 2: Burnish the Testex Press-O-Film™ replica tape onto the steel surface to form an impression/reverse replica. Testex Press-O-Film™ replica tape consists of a layer of compressible foam affixed to an incompressible polyester film of highly uniform thickness. When pressed against a roughened steel surface, the foam forms an impression, or reverse replica, of the surface. Select the appropriate grade of replica tape based on the target profile Pull a single adhesive-backed replica tape free of its release paper and apply it to the blasted surface Firmly compress replica film using the rounded end of the included stainless steel burnishing tool. Apply sufficient pressure in a circular and x-y rubbing motion for 30-60 seconds to fully compress all parts of the film. In general, too much compression is safer than too little. When complete, remove the replica tape from the surface Step 3: Measure the Tape with the PosiTector RTR H Placing the compressed tape (replica) into the PosiTector RTR H gives a measure of the average maximum peak-to-valley height of the surface roughness profile. Insert the burnished replica tape into the measurement opening. Ensure the tape is properly positioned so that the burnished region is centered within the opening in the probe with the adhesive (sticky) side down. To position, the tape, move the Testex™ Press-O-Film™ replica tape to the back of the probe and align the two dots (printed on replica tape) with arrows on both sides of the measurement opening. Once positioned, firmly press both probe buttons simultaneously and hold until the PosiTector RTR H beeps and the measurement is displayed. The gauge automatically subtracts the thickness of the polyester substrate from all measurements.
