4 Functional Description

4.1 Unit Overview

The Elmar Load Cell Testers are designed to simulate the wireline load exerted on a
measuring head. The Load Cell Testers are not to be used to calibrate the measuring head
load cell but enable the user to verify that the load cell and tension read out device are
functioning correctly.
Different Load Cell Testers are to be used with each measuring head:

MP20 ANA1085130 L-6931080699
Table 1: Measuring head compatibility

4.2 Working Principle

The Load Cell Testers are designed to press the top and bottom of the measuring head
together, applying pressure to the load cell and simulating tension from a wrapped
wireline.
The pressure is applied by tightening a nut on top of the top clamp arm of the Load Cell
Tester with a torque wrench. The approximate torque that needs to be applied to the nut
by the operator can be derived from the tables in the appendices and used to verify the
operation of the tension readout device.

NOTE: The load cell tester is only to be used to verify that the load cell is functioning and is not to be used as a
calibration device. The load cell tester is only to be used up to 2,000 kgf (4,410 lbf), which may not cover the full
operational range of the measuring head or readout device.

7 Maintenance

7.1 Introduction
Only qualified and trained personnel should perform maintenance on Elmar units. The
maintenance procedures described here include:
 Scheduled periodic (preventive); (e.g. cleaning, inspecting and testing
components, filling fluid levels and lubricating moving parts)
 Corrective (troubleshooting and repairing any malfunctions, plus
calibrating/adjusting)
 Exchanging parts (according to operational requirements)
The unit can experience extreme forces and rugged conditions, so scheduled maintenance
7 Maintenance

is regularly required to prevent equipment damage and potential hazards. Inspections and
tests should be carried out daily before working with the unit, but regular maintenance
must be performed according to the number of hours the unit has been run. Running hours
should be logged by the operator following a strict discipline to ensure maintenance
activities are carried out on time (an example running hours log form is provided in the
Appendices to this manual). Elmar recommends basing the service intervals on hours of
running; you may prefer to use calendar time of weeks or months.
Refer to the Appendix ‘Tightening Conventions’ for instructions on tightening nuts and
bolts when doing preventive or corrective maintenance.

7.2 Certified assemblies

Your Unit may include assemblies which are certified separately from the complete unit
certification (all certificates are included in the Documentation Package for your unit).
These assemblies (examples are drive motors and power unit transformers) may only be
serviced by Elmar service personnel, otherwise the certification (and possibly the warranty)
for the complete unit becomes invalid. A certified assembly is identified by its own data
plate with serial number, and is listed as a single top-level part number in the drawings and
spare parts lists. If a fault is detected in a certified assembly, do not attempt a repair
yourself, but always contact Elmar Service for advice (see Contact Us in the appendices).

7.3 OEM components

Certain components of your Unit are complete assemblies or subsystems supplied by
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM). Examples are measuring heads, air conditioning
units, motor-generator sets. The routine servicing schedules and instructions for these
components are usually not included in this User Manual, but supplied separately in the
Documentation Package for your unit. Ensure this supplementary documentation is always
available and read it thoroughly, particularly the required periodic maintenance schedules.

 LOAD CELL TESTER

Tension Test Results

Use these values to test the measuring head and tension readout device.

NOTE: The load cell tester is only to be used to verify that the load cell is functioning and is not to be used as a
calibration device. The load cell tester is only to be used up to 2,000 kgf (4,410 lbf), which may not cover the full
operational range of the measuring head or readout device. All values are based on assembled parts being
correctly lubricated.
