The PosiTector SHD Verifier kit is ideal for checking the accuracy and
operation of shore hardness durometers and is an important component
in fulfilling both ISO and in-house quality control requirements.
The kit is ready to use with all PosiTector SHD Shore Hardness
Durometers. The Smart Sensor Indicator (SSI) has been preset, and no
additional configuration is required or recommended. If the SSI settings
are mistakenly altered, see Reconfiguring the SSI Device (pg. 3).

1. Remove the PosiTector SHD Verifier
and Smart Sensor Indicator from the case.
Make sure to place the PosiTector SHD
Verifier on a stable flat surface.
2. Connect the Load Cell Cable to
the Smart Sensor Indicator
The PosiTector SHD Verifier includes Certificates of Calibration for the SSI
and load cell. For information on returning your PosiTector SHD Verifier for
recertification, contact DeFelsko or your local dealer.
The PosiTector SHD Verifier, with valid Certificates of Calibration, can be

3. Select a SHD A (aluminum) or SHD D (brass) target and insert it into
the load cell as shown. Note: Inspect the targets before installing. To
prevent damage to the PosiTector SHD D probe tip, the SHD D (brass)
target is designed to be dented during testing and will periodically need to
be replaced. The SHD A (aluminum) target will not be dented during testing
and should be replaced if there is any damage to the top surface.
4.1 Perform a Gage Reset on the PosiTector SHD
4.2 Select Continuous Reading Mode from the Setup menu on the
PosiTector SHD.
4.3 Turn the Micrometer Adjustment so that it is set between 1 and 2.
4.4 Place the PosiTector SHD probe into Probe Holder. Ensure that the
probe tip doesn’t touch the target.
