Special Features

The analog display of tension meter DXP shows changing and fluctuating tensions fast and enables an optimal process adjustment

Non-rotating ceramic pins permit line speeds up to max. 6000 m/min

The ceramic pins have on each side small flanges to guide the thread and to avoid slipping off the ceramic pins

Small measuring head width with of only 27 mm for measurements at positions with limited space

Length of measuring head approx. 64 mm

Roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material

Built-in mounting holes permit fixed installation for continuous tension measurement

Turned-up outer finger edges guide the running filament into the roller grooves

Special finger support located on the rear side reduces the effort to move the outer roller assembly

Standard Features

Everything in operator’s view:
– the guide rollers
– the measured material
– the readings

Each instrument is individually calibrated for highest accuracy

41 mm Ø scale

Attachment

Code A - Air Damping
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.

Code M - Memory Pointer
For tension range 20 – 120 cN and higher
Retains the highest measured value (PEAK). Available for mechanical tension meters.
