Tension Meter DXV
7 Tension ranges from 10 - 50 cN to 200 - 2000cN
Tension meter with small measuring head, where access space is limited and turned-up outer finger edges for easy thread
Tension Meter DXV-1500
Special Features
top
- The analog display shows changing and fluctuating tensions fast and enables an optimal process adjustment
- Turned-up outer finger edges guide the running filament into the roller grooves
- Built-in mounting holes permit fixed installation for continuous tension measurement
- Special finger support located on the rear side reduces the effort to move the outer roller assembly
 | Finger Support: We recommend mounting a finger support for higher tension ranges |
- Small, ball-bearing mounted, V-grooved guide rollers
Note: This model does not include a material thickness compensator
Standard Features
- Everything in operator’s view: the guide rollers the measured material the readings
- Each instrument is individually calibrated for highest accuracy
- Roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material
- Built-in mounting holes permit fixed installation for continuous
tension measurement - 41 mm Ø scale
- Tension meter with rugged aluminium housing
- Specific Test Report with calibration report optionally available

Calibration to customized material:
If process material differs significantly from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity or shape, special calibration using customer supplied samples is recommended. For this purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.

SCHMIDT scales are manufactured according to the most stringent quality requirements. Printed scales are not used. Instead, each scale is individually marked for the instrument involved. This ensures highest quality. Our special procedure makes it possible to provide tension meters
- calibrated to custom supplied material
- fine tuned to a specific tension range
- other units of measure such as g
