included + 1 replacement) for indication of maximum resistance when
picking the fruit. The result is a criteria for ripeness and harvest
timing. Precise and handy Spring Balance with durable anodised aluminium
tube and long scale of high resolution. Tare and zero adjustment.
Swivelable, rotatable and removable suspension bow, guided in a ring. A
multifunctional long life measuring instrument for weighing and
measuring traction forces. Always ready for use, needs no batteries. A
time-tested original Swiss quality product.
Application The EU recommends to measure the
withholding force of fruit on their peduncle in random sampling for
reasons of quality and determination of harvesting period (in particular
for olives).
Manual
- Fully pull out the measuring bracket on its shaft until it jams and can be positioned for easy use.
- Bring the scale into measuring position (e.g. scale inclined downwards, hook upwards, in direction of the peduncle).
- Adjust the zero point with the tare screw.
- Slide the drag pointer towards zero.
- Put the eye-hook around the peduncle of the fruit.
- Continuously
pull on the bow of the scale (the axial extension of the scale from 0 –
1000 g should take 3 seconds). The fruit will detach sometime during
tensile loading and the drag pointer will stand still on the maximum
load. ATTENTION: take care that no recoiling braches will move the drag
pointer before reading.
- Repeat the measurement on different fruits (10 x), note the different maximum forces and calculate the average for final result.
