Press release date: January 21, 2010

Launch includes all-in-one Torque Testers and highly accurate transducers.

Conyers, GA, 21-Jan 2010 - With the introduction of new test and calibration equipment, Stanley Proto has positioned itself as a full torque solutions provider. Most companies that use torque wrenches have regularly scheduled calibration checks. To help meet this need Proto is introducing a new stand-alone Torque Tester, and expanding its line of Transducers

Torque Tester. Testing and calibrating a torque wrench usually requires three separate tools: a transducer, a bracket, and a meter. But the Stanley® Proto® Torque Tester streamlines the process by combining all three functions in one tool. The tool can be used to test all types of torque wrenches in all types of settings where full-scale calibration is needed or where a quick Pass/Fail check is required. Potential users include those in production facilities, quality control as well as in calibration labs.

The new testers offer the following:

o Five SKUs that offer a test range of 5 in-lbs to 600 ft-lbs.
o Accuracy of ±1% of indicated value in clockwise and counter clockwise directions, over a range of 10% to 100% of Full Scale.
o Three units of measure: ft-lb, in-lb, and Nm.
o Three operating modes: Track Mode, Peak Hold and First Peak (for use with Click-style Torque wrenches).
o An easy to read LCD Display with large digits
o A dial display that rotates for easy viewing of the LCD display and easy access to the keypad.
o Rugged, all steel construction.
o A target torque zone that's adjustable from 1% to 10% of targeted torque value for a quick PASS/FAIL indication.
o Red/Green/Yellow lights, as well as an audible buzzer, to signal when torque target zones are approaching and met.
o A 50-hour run time on a standard 9-volt battery

Testers meet or exceed requirements set forth in ASME B107.29.

An optional steel stand provides a strong support with minimal footprint. The stand has predrilled holes for securing it to the floor and for mounting the Tester.

Transducers. For users who need separate meters and transducers, Proto is also introducing five new transducers, increasing the total number of SKUs in its lineup to 16. When used with the Proto® Torque Meter, the new transducers are plug and play, with automatic transducer detection, easy set-up and user-friendly operation. All bench mount transducer have an impressive accuracy of ±0.5% of indicated value.

Proto® Transducers offer torque ranges from 25 in-lb to 2000 ft-lb, which covers the entire range of Proto® Torque Wrenches.
