1. Description The R130 tester is a portable, battery-powered instrument for checking surface roughness with the measured values displayed on a digital readout. The instrument can be used in the laboratory, an inspection area, in the shop, or wherever on-site surface roughnesss testing is required.
3. Measurement parameters Roughness Average---the arithmetic average height of roughness irregularities measured from a mean line within the evaluation length (L) Maximum Roughness Depth ---The largest of the peak_to_valley roughness depths in the evaluation length. www.innovatest-europe.com...
4. If the Ra or Rz value displayed is out of the measuring rang which accordance with the selected Cut-off, then re-select the cut-off . Refer to table 1. 5. The digital readout also can display “2-X.XX” (Rz) in circularly by press and release the parameter selection button. www.innovatest-europe.com...

The tester can be switch on with the “>” (start) key and be turned off automatically after 2 minutes. If the tester is auto switched off, the last measuring result can’t be shown on the screen when re-start the tester as this auto-off is the real off (power cut-off). www.innovatest-europe.com...
3. Using a screwdriver, carefully adjust the calibration control. Clockwise to increase the displayed Ra value, or Counter clockwise to decrease the displayed Ra value. 4. After adjusting the calibration control, remeasure the reference specimen to assure that the tester is within the calibration tolerance. www.innovatest-europe.com...

5. When calibrating with a Small Bore Probe or Groove Bottom Probe, the probe should be in the 180° position. And make sure that the tester base is on the same height as the surface of the calibration specimen. calibration plate or height stand www.innovatest-europe.com...

8. Probes 8.1 General purpose probe (R130-2001 or R130-2002) For most surface roughness applications. R130-2001 has a 90°conical diamond stylus, .0004”/10µm radius per ISO specifi cations. R130-2002 has a 90°conical diamond stylus, .0002”/5µm radius per DIN standards. 8.2 Transverse chisel probe (R130-2003) For gaging sharp edges or small O.D.’s where probe is aligned with (in 180°or closed...
8.4 Small bore probe (R130-2005 or R130-2006) For measuring small bores (min. inside diameter of 5.0mm,up to a depth of 15.0mm). 90°conical diamond stylus, .0004”/10µm radius for R130-2005; .0002/5µm radius for R130-2006. 8.5 Groove bottom probe (R130-2007) For measuring the bottoms of “O” ring grooves, recesses and holes to depth of 6.0mm.
Make sure that the probe is fully inserted into the probe mounting block(so that the electrical connector is completely engaged) before tightening the locking collar. Finger tighten only. 4. Check the tester’s calibration after changing probes. www.innovatest-europe.com...
