Tension Meter DXR

6 Tension ranges available
from 200 - 2000 cN up to 5 - 50 daN

Special purpose tension meter for measuring all kinds of tapes and bands, such as textile ribbons, films, foils, fiber bunches, etc. roller width 50 and 100 mm

Mechanical hand-held instrument with cylindrical tape rollers supported and mounted on both sides

The tension meter is equipped with both-sided flanged outside guide rollers for better filament guide

Special Features


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

Tape rollers with contact surface 50 mm or 100 mm are available

Dual-flanged outer guide rollers with various widths for better filament guide (single-flanged rollers optional, recommendable if the material being measured is wider than the tape roller)

Roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material

Standard Features


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

Tape rollers, ball-bearing mounted

Each instrument is individually calibrated for highest accuracy

41 mm Ø scale

Tension meter with rugged aluminium housing

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

Note

Tension meter DXR does not include a filament guide and material thickness compensator

When selecting the instrument for your specific application, please keep in mind that:

  • Rollers of different widths are not interchangeable by the user.
  • The roller width should correspond with the width of the material to be measured.
    Otherwise incorrect measuring results may occur and the instrument may be damaged.

SCHMIDT has the solution to any tension measuring problem! Please contact us to discuss your application requirements!

To assist you in selecting the right tension meter for your specific application, please furnish:

  • Kind and dimensions of the material to be measured
  • Expected tension range
  • Short description of the application
  • Material sample of about 5 m

** Outer distance between outside guide rollers


Important for your order:
Please specify model and roller width! Small dual-flanged outer guide rollers are standard. All 3 rollers can be equipped with one flange, if the material to be measured is wider than the rollers. Please request when you order.


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.

Scales

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 DXR

  • calibrated to custom supplied material
  • fine tuned to a specific tension range
  • other units of measure such as g or kg
