BENEFITS

Measures Torque applied on the joint

Measures real angle of rotation to use as tightening strategy

or monitor cycle for detecting errors like re-hitting the

tightened bolt, missing washers, no or excessive lubrication,

thread damage, bolt rotation etc…

Measures time as third parameter over torque and angle for

repeatability and measuring operator efficiency.

Takes care of oil temperature effect on pressure.

Eliminates frictional loss between hoses and hydraulic

wrench as complete system is calibrated with Atlas Copco’s

IRTT transducers.

Stores everyday readings as a separate file and can store

upto 16 GB data.

Software updates or bug handling can be done remotely

through Wifi.

FAQ

Can this unit do multistage tightening as PF4000 / 6000?

Hydraulic tools are not continuous rotation tools hence have design and control limitations.

What is the accuracy of this unit ?

+/- 10% as per ISO 5393 (Tested on IRTT dynamic transducers with ST analyser)

How the frictional losses in the system have been accounted for ?

At the time of calibration, we calibrate the complete unit with hose, wrench and pump. This eliminates all

frictional errors from the system.

Does this unit stop if there is a re-hit ?

Yes with Angle based strategy

Can we run two tools at same time same torque and different torque ?

In option 1 with Torque control we can run 4 tools at same time but with one feedback on controller. Can be

done in option 3 as well but needs software modification at additional cost. Not available as standard.

38

FAQ

How to ensure that pre-torqueing done on bolts is correct ?

Needs several tests to find an appropriate pre torque angle and time window. Results can show the background

colour as orange or yellow with code to identify if pre torque was good or not.

Is this unit possible on lynx pump ?

No, currently we have RTA, only on Panther pumps.

How is calibration done ? Can we do it onsite ? Cost ?

Yes, onsite calibration can be done. Service division being updated on it.

How to get software and repair support ?

Quick support can be provided by taking virtual control of controller through Team viewer installed by default on all

machines
