1. Safety precautions and warnings

1.1 Dangers

Caution !

You will find this caution symbol throughout this instruction manual, where you

may run the risk of minor or fatal injury caused by the inappropriate operation

of this instrument.

Please observe these regulations and use caution in these cases. Pass on all

safety precautions to other users. Besides the safety indications in this manual

the user must have consideration for general safety precautions.

Note

This symbol marks instructions you should take notice of in order to follow

directions, specifications and the correct working process as well as to avoid

damage or destruction of the instrument.

1.2 Notes regarding safety work

The cuttings of the NT-Cutter are sharpened and could cause injuries by

incorrect handling! Operators need to achieve an appropriate security

instruction.

The Proceq ZCT 2160 is solely for the determination of the adhesion of single

or multi-coat systems. Any other application is not in accordance with the

regulations. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from

inappropriate application. The user bears the full responsibility.

Only spare parts and optional components provided by the manufacturer may

be used in combination with the Proceq ZCT 2160. If components other than

provided by PROCEQ are used with the Proceq ZCT 2160, there is no

guarantee by PROCEQ for resulting damages, defects or malfunctions.

Unauthorised modifications and changes of the Proceq ZCT 2160 are not

allowed. These will invalidate the guarantee. The manufacturer is not liable for

damages resulting from unauthorised modifications; the user bears the full

responsibility.

2. Delivery of apparatus

2.1 Damages during carriage

During carriage the Proceq ZCT 2160 is to be handled with the usual care.

To ensure carriage without damages the device is to be transported in the

original packaging and under normal freight conditions. Pushes during

carriage are to be avoided.

At the receipt of the goods, you have to check if there are any visible

damages at the outer packaging. If the packing is alright, you can sign the

receipt documents. If you even suspect by your visual impression that

damage has occurred, make a note of the suspected damage on the

delivery receipt or freight papers and get the carrier to sign it. Moreover, the

forwarding agent/courier service must be held responsible for the damage

in writing.

If a hidden damage is discovered while unpacking, you have to inform and

must held the forwarding agent / courier service immediately in the

following way: “When opening the parcel we had to notice that …. etc. etc.“

This superficial checking of the goods has to be done before the time limit

of the forwarding agent / courier service expires which is normally within 7

days. However, the period could be less. Hence, it is recommended to

check the exact time limit when receiving the goods.

If there are any damages inform also immediately your authorized

PROCEQ trader or Proceq SA directly.

Article No.: 2160.123G:

•3 Cross-cut templets with 1 mm, 2 mm and 3 mm cut spacing

•1 NT-cutter with 9 mm width of edge

incorrect handling! Operators need to achieve an appropriate security

instruction.

•Magnifier

•Brush

•Adhesive tape (1 roll of 22 m, width 50 mm)

•Adhesive tape (1 roll of 65 m, width 25 mm)

page 7 last update: 24.06.2009

3. Handling

•Place the templet on the substrate under test and hold the templet in

such way that the cuts always are executed away from the body and

from the hand holding the templet! Never hold the templet at the sides

of the slits!

Do not to put the fingers directly at the cuts and pay attention not to

cut yourself. The cuttings of the NT-Cutter are sharpened and could

cause injuries by incorrect handling! Operators need to achieve an

appropriate security instruction.

•Carry out six (ASTM 1 mm: 11 cuts) parallel cuts with the desired

spacing by cutting through the film to the substrate in one steady

motion.

•Turn the templet for 90° and make the same number of cuts with the

same spacing again that a lattice pattern is formed.

•Brushing lightly back and forth with the brush (ASTM: or cloth) along

the diagonal of the cross-cut a couple of times.

Additional adhesive tape test (not for smooth substrates for DIN EN ISO):

•Remove two complete laps of tape and discard.

•Remove an additional length at a steady rate and cut a piece about

75 mm long. Stick the piece adhesive tape on the cut area. Rub the

tape firmly by finger.

•Within 5 minutes (ASTM: 90 s ± 30 s) remove the adhesive tape

carefully and steady by seizing the free end and pulling it rapidly back

upon itself within approx. 0,5 to 1 s in an angle of 60° (ASTM: as near

as 180° as possible) in the pulling direction.

•(DIN EN ISO: keep the adhesive tape for comparative purposes, e.g.

by sticking it on a transparent film.

•Check the results with the chapter “4 Overwiew - Cross-cut

classification” on page 8.

4. Overwiew - Cross-cut classification

cross-cut

according to EN ISO 2409

according to

ASTM D 3359

The edges of the cuts are

completely smooth, none of

the squares of the lattice is

detached.

5B:

The edges of the

cuts are completely

smooth; none of the

squares of the lattice

is detached.

Detachment of small flakes

of the coating at the

intersections of the cuts. A

cross-cut area not greater

than 5% is affected.

4B:

Small flakes of the

coating are detached

at intersections; less

than 5% of the area

is affected.

The coating has flaked

along the edges and/or at

the intersections of the

cuts. A cross-cut area

greater than 5% but not

greater than 15% is

affected.

3B:

Small flakes of the

coating are detached

along edges and at

intersections of cuts.

The area affected is

5% to 15% of the

lattic

last update: 24.06.2009 page 9

cross-cut

according to EN ISO 2409

according to

ASTM D 3359

The coating has flaked

along the edges of the cuts

partly or wholly in large

ribbons, and/or it has flaked

partly or wholly on different

parts of the squares. A

cross-cut area greater than

30% but not greater than

50% is affected.

2B:

The coating has

flaked along the

edges and on parts

of the squares. The

area affected is 15%

35% of the lattice.

The coating has flaked

along the edges of the cuts

in large ribbons and/or

some squares have

detached partly or wholly. A

cross-cut area greater than

35%, but not greater than

65% is affected.

1B:

The coating has

flaked along the

edges of cuts in large

ribbons and whole

squares have

detached. The area

affected is 35% to

65% of the lattice.

Any degree of flaking that

cannot even be classified

by classification 4.

0B:

Flaking and

detachment worse

than grade 1B.
