Tension meter ETPX-200
Special Features Model ETPB
top
- Tension meter with guide rollers mounted on long shafts to reach into tightest places
- Storage of AVG, MIN, MAX and PEAK tension values can be recalled in the display
- Adjustable electronic damping for better reading when tension is constantly changing.
- LCD display with illuminated background for better reading
- Display can be reversed for right and left hand use to reach all measuring positions easily
Additional Special Features model ETPX
- 2 interfaces: 1. serial interface (RS 232) for connecting to a PC
2. analog interface (0 - 2 V) for connecting to a line recorder - Memory of max. 4000 displayed tension values splited up to 255 series of measurements and statistics (Last, AVG, MIN and MAX of displayed values, MIN-PEAK and MAX-PEAK are values measured within a measuring frequency of 5 kHz)
|
|||||
 | Model ETPX can be connected to a PC with the cable ETX-CC (max. 80 values/s can be transfered, depending on tension range). With the programm SW-TI2»Tension Inspect« readings can be displayed, statistically analyzed and saved. For more information see "accessories" |
