2. Product Introduction
BEVS 1306 Intelligent Pendulum Hardness Tester is a fully automatic, touch-screen
controlled instument for the measurement of flat test panels for coatings, paints, etc. The
Persoz pendulum or Konig pendulum used in this product is measured according to the
standard ASTM D 4366, BS 3900 E5, DIN 53157, ISO 1522, NF T30-016, GB / T1730. The
test principle is as follows: The pendulum rod is placed on the test surface of the test panel.
The two steel pendulums of the pendulum are in contact with the test surface. The
pendulum motion is performed. The test surface with different hardness reflects different
swing times, and the harder the coating is, the more the damping is.
Features：
* The test process is fully automated. The organic glass cover is automatically raised up
and down. The test panel platform automatically lifts and hangs the swing bar. The shift
lever mechanism automatically sets the swing bar to the corresponding angle and
automatically releases the swing bar for testing.
* Automatically identify the pendulum type and start counting.
* Digital recognition of level conditions makes sure high precision.
* With temperature and humidity sensors.

* High-precision guide rail ensures smooth movement and low noise.
* 4.3 inch touch screen and user-friendly interface.
* Data saved, and can be connected to a computer for output.

3.6.2 Explanation
Under normal circumstances, König pendulum's result time is close to half of the PERSOZ
pendulum's. From this point of view, the PERSOZ pendulum is considered to have a better
resolution than the König pendulum; however, the PERSOZ pendulum slips on hard
coatings due to its lower center of gravity. It will affect the actual measurement accuracy to
some extent. It is generally believed that the König pendulum is more suitable for the

determination of hard coatings, and the PERSOZ pendulum is more suitable for the
determination of soft coatings. Due to the differences in structure, weight, size, oscillation
period and swing between the two pendulums, and the complex elastic and viscous
changes under the interaction between the pendulum and the coating, the two pendulums
do not have equivalent conversion relationship of measurement results.
3.6.3 Steps
1) Power on
Place the instrument properly according to 3.2-3.5 and turn the switch on.
2) Main Interface
After booting, the instrument enters the main interface as shown below. Click “Settings” to
set and adjust the related parameters, “up”and “down” button controls the cover. Press the
start button, the instrument will automatically determine if the test conditions have been
reached or not. (Like with cover closed or not). The instrument warns when not reaching
the operation conditions. The stop button can stop all the current operations at any time.

3) Open Cover
Click “Up” button to open it.
4) Place test panel and pendulum
There are two holes on both sides of the steel balls of the two pendulums. When placing
the PERSOZ pendulum, ensure the holes mount onto the pins on the hanging shelf as
shown below (KONIG pendulum, the same way to hang). Place the test panel on the test
platform from right to left.

5) Level adjustment
Note: It is not necessary to adjust the level every time, instrument can be self-tested
whether it is in the horizontal state or not. If there is a warning, please adjust it.
BEVS 1306 adopts high-precision electronic level meter to monitor the horizontal status. It
can display the status of deviation from four foots. Adjust the four footpads to control the
horizontal status.
Figure 4
Click “Settings” button on the main interface to enter the setup page of level adjustment as
pic below. Adjust the footpads to make each value as close to 0 as possible. “0” means that
there is no deviation, and it reaches the full level status. The bigger value is, the bigger
deviation is.

Auto mode will detect the pendulum type automatically. When the pendulum is placed
correctly, the system will recognize and do the measurement accordingly.
7) Close the cover by clicking “Down”button.
8) Start measurement
Start measurement (the instrument will check whether the above step has been executed),
when the self-test passes, the test panel platform will be lifted, and test panel will hold up
the pendulum to a limited height, pendulum separates from pins.
