L3 LOAD Setting An exception stops aborts the test run when the Grip Load is exceeded
8.9.4 Current Load Cell The L3 software identifies the load cell sensor model that is connected to the test frame and that is communicating and controlled by the L3 workstation. You may use the drop down list to select a load cell model if you choose to have a specific load cell associated with this system or a particular test setup. 8.9.5 Maximum Load Allowed The “Maximum load allowed” feature lets you limit the capacity of a connected load cell sensor by specifying the maximum load allowed. Using this limit can help prevent accidental overloads. If you are using a 100N load cell, and you specify the Max load allowed at 75%, the 100N load cell will measure between 0 and 75N. A test run will terminate if this load limit is exceeded. WARNING Excessive crosshead speed may make it impossible to stop in sufficient time to prevent an overload. Do not use high speeds, particularly in compression directions.
8.9.3 Frame Capacity The Frame Capacity value is automatically displayed and represents the maximum allowed load capacity for the test frame your L3 system is configured with. This is a “read-only” value and is not adjusted.
L3 LOAD Setting Shows the frame capacity for this L3 System at 112lbf (500N) NOTE No tests may be performed beyond the Frame capacity.
