GETTING STARTED

FITTING THE BATTERIES
Each gauge is supplied with 16 x AA NiMH rechargeable batteries and battery charger.

To insert or replace the batteries:

  • Unscrew the battery cap (turning anti-clockwise) and remove the battery cover.
  • Refit the cover and tighten the battery cap.
  • Insert 8 batteries taking care to ensure correct polarity.

Each fully charged set of batteries will last for approximately 200 pulls up to 25MPa (3600psi) at 1MPa/s (145psi/s) using a 20mm dolly.
The battery charger supplied can re-charge a set of 8 cells in approximately 5 hours. Care should be taken to ensure the correct polarity when fitting the batteries into the charger
Ensure that the battery charger power supply is connected to the charger before plugging into the mains supply.
The battery condition is indicated by the battery symbol ( ) at the top right of the display. When there is insufficient charge remaining to perform >100 tests, an indication of the approximate number of tests remaining – based on pulls to 25MPa (3600psi), using a 20mm dolly – is also displayed below the battery symbol.
Note : Batteries must be disposed of carefully to avoid environmental contamination. Please consult your local Environmental Authority for information on disposal in your region. Do not dispose of any batteries in fire.

The LCD display can be powered via USB. When connected, is displayed at the top right of the display allowing various functions to be undertaken including batch setup, review and transfer of data to PC or mobile device.

SECURING THE DOLLY

USING 10mm, 14.2mm OR 20mm DOLLIES

  1. Prepare the surface of the dolly and the coating where the dolly is to be applied by roughening with the abrasive pad. Then de-grease and clean both surfaces using a suitable solvent and allow to dry.
  2. Mix equal quantities of the two part Araldite® adhesive and apply a thin, even layer to the prepared surface of the dolly. 4 Araldite® adhesive is supplied by Elcometer however, other adhesives can be used – see Section 16 ‘Adhesives’
  3. Press the dolly firmly onto the prepared test surface and apply pressure to squeeze out excess adhesive which should then be wiped clean.
  4. Allow the adhesive to cure – see Section 16 ‘Adhesives’
  5. If testing on vertical surfaces, you may wish to tape the dolly in place during cure.
  6. If required, score the coating around the dolly using the dolly cutter provided.

TESTING COATINGS ON CONCRETE USING 50mm DOLLIES

When testing coatings on concrete using 50mm dollies, scoring of the coating down to, or into, the surface of the concrete may be required.

  1. If testing on coatings thicker than 0.5mm (20mils) use the 50mm dolly cutter and arbor (mounted in a drill press or hand drill) to cut a “ring” into the concrete.
    4 Ensure that the scoring is perpendicular to the coating and that the test area is not subjected to twisting or torque. To minimise heat and suppress dust, water lubrication may be required.

  2. Follow steps 1-4 in Section 5.1, making sure the dolly is positioned inside the cut “ring”.

To score coatings thinner than 0.5mm (20mils), a sharp knife may be sufficient to carefully score around the dolly once it has been secured in place by adhesive.

ATTACHING THE GAUGE TO THE DOLLY

  1. Ensure the quick connect coupling is fully depressed.
  2. Pull up the quick connect coupling, place the actuator (with skirt fitted) over the dolly then release the coupling to grip the dolly.
  3. The quick connect coupling is not a bayonet fitting. Do not attempt to push the actuator onto the dolly without lifting the quick connect coupling.

When testing at height or on vertical surfaces, in order to prevent damage to the surrounding coating or harm to the user, it may be necessary to use the Magnetic Anchor Clamp accessory, part number T99923797. This connects to the lanyard ring on the top of the actuator to prevent the actuator from falling when the dolly is pulled from the substrate.

PERFORMING THE TEST

  1. Press and hold the ON/OFF button to switch the gauge on.
  2. Ensure that the measurement units, dolly size and pull rate are set as required, see Section 4.
  3. Press the start softkey () to begin the test. Load is applied at the rate defined, displayed numerically on the screen, and illustrated on the load bar.
  4. The load continues to increase at the defined rate until either: the dolly pulls off; the gauge maximum pull load/ pressure has been reached (eg. 25MPa for a 20mm dolly)
  5. At this point, the gauge re-winds to “zero, and the user is asked if they wish to save the reading.
  6. Indicates a reading outside of range.
  7. If the maximum pull load pressure has been reached, the gauge will not re-wind to zero’ until the default hold time of 0.5 seconds has elapsed.
  8. The gauge re-winds to zero’ at a set rate of 1.5MPa/s or equivalent. Pull up the quick connect coupling to release the dolly and assess the results, see Section 8.

The stop softkey ( ) can be pressed at any time during the test. If pressed, the user is asked if they wish to save the reading, and the gauge re-winds to ‘zero’. If saved, the “stopped” reading is included in the statistics.
Dollies can be reused after cleaning until either the top of the dolly (where it is held in position by the quick connect coupling) is severely deformed or the dolly surface is no longer flat. Additional policies are available from Elcometer or your local supplier see Section 15.1 ‘Dollies’ on page en-18 for details.

ASSESSING THE RESULTS

Many National and International Standards including ISO 4624 & ASTM D4541, require the user to record not only the pull-off force but also the nature of the fracture by examining the bottom of the dolly and assessing the adhesive/cohesive failure.

EXAMINING THE DOLLY

  • Cohesive Failure : The coating fails within the body of a coating layer leaving the same coating on the surface and on the dolly face.elcometer 510 Automatic Pull-Off Adhesion Gauge Tester fig \(8\)
  • Adhesive failure : Is a failure at the interface between layers (intercoat) where one pulls away from the other. The “coating” on the dolly face will not be the same as that on the test area.elcometer 510 Automatic Pull-Off Adhesion Gauge Tester fig \(9\)
  • Glue failure : When no coating is present on the dolly it must be recorded as a failure of the glue. This is normally due to incorrect or insufficient mixing of the component parts of the adhesive, incompatibility between the adhesive, the coating, the dolly, and /or the test surface – see Section 5 – ‘Securing the Dolly’ on page en-8 for more information.elcometer 510 Automatic Pull-Off Adhesion Gauge Tester fig \(10\)

EXAMINING THE DOLLY (COATINGS ON CONCRETE)

When testing coatings on concrete it is common for the adhesive bond between the coating and the concrete to exceed the strength of the concrete itself. In this case, concrete will be removed from the surface and will be seen on the coating on the dolly face.
Observing the test area will give additional information about the type of failure; adhesion and cohesion between different layers of the coating.elcometer 510 Automatic Pull-Off Adhesion Gauge Tester fig

BATCHING

BATCH FUNCTIONS

The Elcometer 510 Model S gauge can store up to 60 readings in one batch and has the following batching functions:

  • Batch/New Batch; Create a new batch – see Section 9.2 for further information.
  • Batch/Open Existing Batch; Open an existing batch.
  • Batch/Edit Batch/Clear Batch; Clear all readings within the batch – but leave all batch header information.
  • Batch/Review Batch; Review the readings, statistics and batch information – see Section 10 for further information.
  • Batch/Edit Batch/Delete Batch; Delete the batch entirely from the gauge.
  • Batch/Deleted Reading/Delete without Tag; Delete the last reading entirely.
  • Batch/Deleted Reading/Delete with Tag; Delete the last reading but mark it as deleted in the batch memory.

CREATING A NEW BATCH

Many Standards require the user to record not only the pull-off force and the nature of the fracture but also details of the test equipment used; if a support ring was used and its dimensions, if, and by what means, the coating was cut around the dolly.
This additional information is recorded within the batch header and transferred to PC to be included on any report within ElcoMaster®. For further information on ElcoMaster® visit www.elcometer.com.
To create a new batch select Batch/New Batch and add the following criteria as required:

  • Dolly Size & Pull Rate; (Batch/New Batch/Dolly Size & Pull Rate)
  • Cutting Device; the type of cutting device used, if any, to score the coating around the dolly; (Batch/New Batch/Cutting Device)
  • The dolly skirt type; (Batch/New Batch/Skirt Type)
    • Select ‘20mm Standard’ for Standard Skirt for 10, 14.2 and 20mm dollies;
    • Select ‘50mm Standard’ for Standard Skirt for 50mm dollies;
    • Select ‘14.2mm Thin Substrate’ for Thin Substrate Skirt for 14.2mm dollies;
    • Select ‘20mm Thin Substrate’ for Thin Substrate Skirt for 20mm dollies

Note : A new batch can not be created if a batch already exists. The existing batch must be deleted first.
Note: The Elcometer 510 dolly skirt has an integrated support ring, therefore identifying the dolly skirt used records the use of a support / bearing ring as required by some standards, together with the support ring dimensions – see Section 15.3 ‘Dolly Skirts’ on page en-19 for dimensions.

These details can be added and amended until the first reading has been stored in the batch after which no changes can be made.
This information is saved in the batch header and can be viewed at any time via Batch/Review Batch/Batch Information.

REVIEWING BATCH DATA

BATCH STATISTICS

(Batch/Review Batch/Statistics) Displays statistical information for the batch including:

  • Number of readings in the batch (n)
  • The average reading for the batch (X)
  • Lowest reading in the batch (Lo)
  • Highest reading in the batch (Hi)
  • Range ( ); the difference between the highest and lowest reading in the batch
  • Standard Deviation (σ)
  • Coefficient of Variation (cv%)

Note: The calculation of standard deviation is based on the distribution of individual fracture strength values being normal, that is forming a normal curve when plotted as a frequency chart. If adhesion values for pulls that are not completed are included in the calculation, i.e. pulled to a limit value or maximum and not to fracture, the distribution will not be normal and the standard deviation calculation will not be mathematically correct. For the purpose of assessing the distribution of values in this case, however, the calculation will be included as though all the dollies were pulled to coating failure and it should be noted that the resulting calculation is for guidance only.

BATCH READINGS

(Batch/Review Batch/Readings) Displays all measurement data for each individual reading within the batch including:elcometer 510 Automatic Pull-
Off Adhesion Gauge Tester fig \(15\)

  • The reading value;
  • Date and time stamp for each test;
  • Test duration.

Note : The test duration includes the hold time but does not include the time it takes for the gauge to re-wind to ‘zero’.

Press the  softkeys to scroll through the readings and to move to the next information screen.

VERIFYING THE GAUGE CALIBRATION

The Elcometer 510 is factory calibrated. The calibration of the gauge can be verified in the field using the Elcometer Adhesion Verification Unit
(AVU), part number T99923924C and the Elcometer 510 Verify Calibration wizard, Menu/Verify Calibration.
Note : The Elcometer Adhesion Verification Unit (AVU) is no longer available for sale.

To verify the calibration:

  1. Select Menu/Verify Calibration.
  2. Switch on the Elcometer AVU and ensure that the appropriate dolly adaptor is fitted and the measurement units are the same as the Elcometer 510 (refer to the instructions supplied with the Elcometer AVU).
  3. Connect the Elcometer 510 actuator (with skirt fitted) to the Elcometer AVU  dolly adaptor.
  4. Press ‘Ok’ on the Elcometer 510 when connected. The Elcometer 510 automatically starts to apply pressure until the first test load is reached.
  5. Compare the test load with the reading on the Elcometer AVU display. If the Elcometer AVU reading is within the acceptable range, displayed in brackets underneath the test load, press ‘Ok’ to proceed to the next test pressure and repeat step 4. (If outside the acceptable range, re-calibration is recommended. Press ‘Escape’ to exit the calibration verification procedure and contact Elcometer or your local supplier for further information).
  6. When the final test load has been reached, if it is within the acceptable range, press ‘Verify’ to update the gauge or ‘Escape’ to cancel. The date and time of the last verification procedure is recorded against each batch and can be viewed via Batch/Review Batch/Batch Information.

Note : The acceptable range is based on the ‘system’ accuracy – the accuracy of the Elcometer 510 and Elcometer AVU unit combined. Measurement verification points: 5, 10, 15, 20 & 25MPa (or equivalent units).

Note : The Elcometer Adhesion Verification Unit (AVU) is no longer available for sale.
