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.
| Calibration: | According to SCHMIDT factory procedure |
| Accuracy: | ±1 % full scale or ±1 graduation on scale |
| Scale diameter: | 41 mm |
| Temperature range: | 10 – 45 ºC |
| Air humidity: | 85 % RH, max. |
| Housing material: | Die-cast aluminium |
| Dimensions: | See dimensions |
| Weight, net (gross): | Up to model DX2S-10K approx. 400 g (800 g) DX2S-20K approx. 500 g (1000 g) |
Specifications subject to change without notice!
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 meter DX2S

| Code K | 3500 | Hard-coated aluminium |
| Code H | 5000 | Plasma-coated aluminium (model DX2S-120 and higher) |
| Code T | 1000 | Plastic (POM) black |
| Code W | 1000 | Nickel-plated steel |
| Code ST | 1000 | Hardened steel |
| Code B | 1000 | Tempered steel |
| Code CE2 | 1000 | Aluminium ceramic-coated |
| Code ASY | 1000 | Hard-coated aluminium, asymmetrical groove (model DX2S-120 and higher) |
| Code ASYB | 1000 | Tempered steel, asymmetrical groove (model DX2S-120 and higher) |

For tension range from 20 – 120 cN up to max. 400 – 5000 cN.
This adjustable mechanical air dashpot is recommended for applications in which great fluctuations of the measured tension occur, as in spooling and winding machines. This assures steady tension readings on scale.
