WARNING
This table contains general instructions to be used as guidelines for users. All the ap-
plications of each type of extinguisher must be obtained from the relevant manufacturer.
Below is a brief description of some technical terms used in this manual.
SELF-CALIBRATION
This procedure calculates suitable correction coefficients starting from known operat-
ing conditions. It improves the machine accuracy by correcting to a certain extent the
calculation errors that may result from the alteration of the machine's features over the
course of time.
MONITOR
See SELF-CALIBRATION.
CENTRING
Procedure for positioning the wheel on the wheel balancer shaft to ensure that the rota-
tion axis of the wheel coincides with the shaft axis.
BALANCING CYCLE
Sequence of operations to be performed by the user and the machine from the begin-
ning of the spin until the wheel is braked to a stop after calculating the unbalance values.
CONE
Conical element with a central hole which, when inserted on the wheel balancer shaft, is
used to centre the wheels having central holes with a diameter ranging between maxi-
mum and minimum values.
DYNAMIC BALANCING
Procedure for correcting unbalances by applying two weights, one on each of the two
wheel sides.
STATIC BALANCING
Procedure for correcting only the static element of the unbalance, by applying only one
weight, usually at the centre of the rim well. Accuracy increases as the width of the wheel
decreases.
