Special Features

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

Small measuring head width with of only 40 mm for measurements at positions with limited space

Length of measuring head approx. 42 mm

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

Roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material

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

Small, ball-bearing mounted, V-grooved guide rollers

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

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

Finger Support

We recommend mounting a finger support for higher tension ranges

Note

Tension meter DXV does not include a material thickness compensator

** Suitable for 95 % of applications – PA = Polyamide Monofilamen

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.

Tension Meter DXV can be reconverted for special applications.

Attachments

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.

Calibration Report

Inspection Certificate 3.1 according DIN EN 10204
including a calibration report is optional available
