Norbar Torque Tools is reminding operators that it offers an alternative to regular third-party torque wrench calibration, in the form of its ProTest Professional Torque Tester.
It comes with a display and transducers covering up to 40Nm, 400Nm and 1,500Nm to handle in-house testing and calibration of most types of wrenches.
With a claimed accuracy of +/0.5% over the primary range of 20100% of scale reading, the ProTest meets Class 1 of B7882:1997.
There are three operating modes: Track gives live values of torque readings: First Peak Memory is for click-type wrenches; and Peak Memory records the highest torque value.
The unit can be run on 12V DC for use in the field.
Prices. including the display unit, range from £1,252 for the 40Nm tester to £1,350 for the 1,500Nm version.
