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 MK
When the tension exceeds or falls below the adjusted tension range, a signal according to the circuit diagram may be shown. The range will be adjusted with the screws. It is a mechanical contact. Example for a circuit
