2 EASY GTM Gas Pressure and Temperature Measuring System
The EASY GTM gas pressure and temperature measuring system is used
to control the grinding process and for mechanical alloying.
NOTICE!
If grinding balls with a diameter of 1 mm or smaller are
used, there is a risk of the through holes in the lid get-
ting clogged, which could falsify the pressure and tem-
perature measurement. If these ball sizes are used nev-
ertheless, the grinding process must not be carried out
unobserved. The intermediate lid should be checked at
regular intervals during the grinding process. When the
MillControl soware is used, the pressure and tempera-
ture are displayed. If the pressure remains constant, the
cause of this may be a clogged intermediate lid.

2.2 Inserng / changing the baery
Prior to inial start-up, the baery (2) provided must be inserted in the
measuring/transmission unit (9) of the system.
When inserng it for the rst me and during subsequent replacement
of the baery, proceed as follows:
1. Li o the support ring.
2. Then release the 6 hexagon screws (C) for closing the system using
a hexagon screwdriver (7). (See
Ä Chapter 2.9 ‘Cleaning the EASY
GTM system’ on page 14)
3. Li the measuring/transmission unit (9) o of the lid (11).

4. The lock ring with the 6 hexagon screws can now be removed.
5. Undo the two screws (D) of the baery compartment using a hex-
agon oset screwdriver, size 2.5 mm (7).
6. Li o the baery compartment lid and place it to the side. The
baery compartment can be seen.
NOTICE!
Please note that the the baery (2) ts exactly in place
and may need to be pushed in using a certain amount
of force.
The service life of the baery (2) depends on the fre-
quency of the radio protocols (see conguraon) and
essenally on the temperature inside the grinding
bowl.
Also pay aenon to the baery's charge level. If the
baery's capacity falls below 10%, it should be replaced
immediately.
7. Remove the old baery and insert the new baery (2). Baery
type: 1.5 V / AA
Pay aenon to the polarity when inserng the
baery!

8. Ensure that the plug contacts are in the correct posion when
closing the baery compartment!
2.3 Conguraon of transmier ID and data transmission frequency
The measuring/transmission unit (12) is equipped with four conguraon
switches for seng the transmier ID and data transmission frequency.
The switches illustrated are all OFF (actuator cams set to OFF).
2.3.1 Adjustment opons of the transmier detecon
In the delivery condion all switches are set to OFF. It is recognised that,
in this case, bowl 1 and the transmission frequency of 1 second are the
set values. The bowl with ID 1 must then also be inserted in the indicated
posion 1 of the mill. Similarly the EGTM system with ID 2 must be posi-
oned in posion 2 of the mill.
EASY GTM Gas Pressure and Temperature Measuring System

ID Switch 1 Switch 2
Transmier no. 1 OFF OFF
Transmier no. 2 ON OFF
If other switch sengs are set, the EGTM systems will
not be recognised. Ensure that the sengs shown in the
table are used for your systems and that they are used
in the correct posion in the mill.
2.3.2 Transmission frequency seng opons
Transmission every Switch 3 Switch 4
1 second OFF OFF
½ second ON OFF
¼ second OFF ON
automac ON ON
1-second transmission is the default value.
For automac transmission, the 1 / ½ / ¼ second transmission frequency
is switched over in the event of fast changes in pressure or temperature.
The data transmission frequency naturally also has an impact on the bat-
tery's service life.
1-second operaon results in the longest me span.
The transmission frequency can also be checked visually: as soon as the
transmission unit is switched on, the switch ashes each me data is
transmied.
2.4 Installaon of the transmission unit on the EASY GTM bowl
NOTICE!
The threaded holes inside the bowl, the passage holes
and the Allen screws in the locking ring have to be
cleaned thoroughly aer each grinding to allow a safe
fastening of the EASY GTM system.
The EASY GTM system must be assembled as follows before inserng the
EASY GTM system in the planetary micro mill:

1. Put on the lid and secure it in place with the 4 hexagon screws!
2. Apply the transmier with seal (5)!
3. Tighten the hexagon screws crosswise with a torque spanner (1)
unl it disengages! To be on the safe side, re-ghten all screws
again aer inially ghtening them. All screws are secured against
becoming loose during the grinding process once they have been
ghtened with the torque spanner as described.
Fritsch GmbH assumes no guarantee for damage
caused by grinding with loose screws!
4. Switch on the transmier with the On/O buon (A) (LED ashes
blue) and place the support ring on the bowl. Now posion the
bowl with the EGTM system as described in Chapter "Clamping the
grinding bowls".

According to the "DIRECTIVE 2006/66/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIA-
MENT AND COUNCIL as of 6th September 2006 on baeries and
rechargeable baeries and on old baeries and old rechargeable bat-
teries and for the annulment of Direcve 91/157/EEC“ and arcle 1, §18
and arcle 2 of the German Act on the re-denion of the wast legisla-
on on the product responsibility for baeries and rechargeable bat-
teries (BaG) as of 25.06.2009, we are legally obliged as the manufac-
turer to inform you as the consumer about the following:
The Easy GTM product we sell contains a lithium baery, type AA, 1.5V,
that can be discharged once.
When the baery is at, it may not be disposed of along with household
waste. Old baeries may contain harmful substances that can pollute the
environment or damage your health. Please deliver the baeries to the
regional recycling point/collecon point. Please only place discharged/
at baeries in the containers intended for this purpose. Cover the ter-
minals of lithium baeries with adhesive tape rst.
All baeries and rechargeable baeries are reused. Valuable substances,
such as zinc, iron and nickel can thus be recycled. Baery recycling is one
of the easiest environmental protecon measures. The crossed-out
dustbin symbol means that (rechargeable) baeries may not be disposed
of along with household waste.
