Electronic tension meter for applications in textile and wire industry. Versatile usable.
Applications in textile industry: e. g. 50 up to max. 50000 tex Applications in wire industry: e. g. 0.08 up to 2.2 O mm copper wire
Basic unit for easy operation
Special Features
Microprocessor controlled tension meter for highest accuracy
Measuring principle: double beam in bending with strain gauge
Selectable update rates (0.5, 1, 2 or 4 seconds) to provide steady readings when tensions fluctuate (electronic damping)
Measuring frequency: 62 measurements/second
The display ot the tension meter shows averaged values calculated during the update interval t1 e. g. every second 1 x
DIP switch for adjustment by operator e. g. display update rate
Saving MIN, MAX and PEAK values during a user-selected period. These values can be recalled at the display.
Zero adjustment feature permits use of the tension meter in various measuring positions, maintaining highest accuracy
Calibration to customer supplied material is available (up to two different material calibrations)
Tension meter with built-in material thickness compensator improves accuracy for changing diameters (from tension range - 500 cN)
Hand-held unit with built-in mounting holes permit fixed installation for online use
Easy mounting: For online application
Material thickness compensator: For better accuracy the material to be measured or a similar material with the same diameter should be inserted
Standard Features
Everything in operator’s view: - the guide rollers - the measured material - the readings
Filament guide and roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material
Ball-bearing mounted, V-grooved guide rollers
Tension meter with rugged aluminium housing
Battery operated (AC adapter for continuous operation available)
Certificate of Compliance with the order 2.1 according EN 10204 is included
Optionally available: Inspection Certificate 3.1 according EN 10204 with calibration report
