1. Summary
DHT-100Plus Leeb hardness tester, based on the principle of Leeb theory, can
be used for hardness testing of various metals. With the feature of compact
size, it is suitable for working on various circumstances. The Leeb hardness
values can be easily converted to HRC, HRB, HV, HS and so on. In order to
operate the instrument correctly and properly, users are required to read this
instruction manual completely before using it.
2. Principle of Leeb hardness testing method
2.1 History of Leeb hardness testing method
The Leeb hardness testing method was first introduced by Dr. Leeb in 1978.
It is defined as the quotient of an impact body’s rebound velocity over its
impact velocity, multiplied by 1000. Hard materials produce a higher rebound
velocity than that of softer materials. For a specific group of material (e.g.
steel, aluminum. etc.), Leeb hardness value represents a direct relationship to
its hardness properties. For ordinary metal, conversion curves of hardness HL
versus other standard static hardness (HB, HV, HRC, etc.) are available,
enabling you to convert HL into other hardness values.
2.2 Definition of Leeb hardness
An impact body with a spherical test tip made of tungsten carbide is propelled
against the sample surface by a spring force and then rebounds back. At a
distance of 1mm from the sample surface, the impact and rebound velocity of
the impact body are measured by the following method: A permanent magnet
embedded in the impact body, when passing through the coil in its coil holder,
induces in the coil an electric voltage proportional to the velocities of the
magnet. The Leeb hardness values are expressed by the following formula:
HL=1000×( Vb / Va )
Where:HL is Leeb hardness values
Vbis the rebound velocity of the impact body
Vais the impact velocity of the impact body
Figure 1 show the voltage produced during the impact and rebound of
impact body.

The Leeb hardness values can be converted to other hardness scales
directly, such as HV, HRC, HRB, HB and HS.
2.3 Available Functions
●320×240 matrix TFT Color LCD
●Auto connects to 32 bits / 64 bits computer system.
●100 files x 100 data can be stored.
●Auto identification of impact device D, DC, DL, D+15, C, G
●Quick entry of test numbers, test data, sample material type and impact
direction via the keypad.
●Multi-languages and Multi-hardness standards.
●Quick print out of all test results via optional Bluetooth printer or data
transfer without software.
●Auto converse to hardness value (HL, HRC, HRB,HB, HV, HSD)
●Low Battery Indicator
2.4 Symbol of Leeb’s hardness values
Just like the other hardness scales, users will get different hardness values
with different impact devices, for example:
720HLD≠720HLC.
Owing to different converting curves obtained from different hardness scale,
when converting from hardness scale L to another hardness scale, the
notation for the converted hardness value should include the impact device
used. For example: the Leeb hardness value 510HLD should be expressed as
below when it is converted to Rockwell hardness scales HRC: 510, 20 HRCLD in
which：510 Leeb hardness values
20 converted hardness values
HRC means the converted object
L means the measuring method
D means D impact device

3. Pre-treatment of work piece
To get the accurate measuring results, pre-treatment of work piece is
required.
3.1 Work piece surface
Temperature of work piece should be less than 80℃；
The surface roughness requirements are listed in table 3.1.1
Table: 3.1.1
Impact Device

D, DC, D＋15, DL
2um
G

C
0.4um
The small support ring or non-conventional support rings are required for
work piece with curved surface radius less than 30mm, for details please refer
to appendix 4.
3.2 Weight of work piece
No support is required for work piece weight more than 5kg.
Work piece with weight of 2-5kg and also heavier work piece with
protruding parts or thin walls should be placed on a solid support. In such a
manner, they do not move or flex during testing.
Work piece less than 2 kg should be rigidly coupled with a non-yielding
support such as a heavy base plate.

3.3 Work piece surface hardened layer
If the work piece surface hardened layer is too thin, the impact force of
short duration will go through the layer and make the L-value incorrect. The
proper depth surface hardened layer is listed below:

3.4 No strong magnetism on the work piece surface
Strong magnetism will affect the circuit winding greatly, and affect the
accuracy of testing results, so it is required to avoid strong magnetism during
testing.
4. Selection and performance of impact device
4.1 Selection of impact device
Before testing, users should correctly select the proper impact devices
according to testing requirement, work piece size and shape. For details
please refer to appendix 1.
4.2 performance of impact devices
a) Loading
Press down the loading tube to lock the impact body.
b) Placement
Place the support ring on surface to be measured and make sure the
distance between two test points should be no less than 3mm.
c) Testing
Trigger the release button while the work piece and the impact body
are all stable, and the starting force coincides with the axis of the
impact body.
