DXT Tension meter with Cylindric rollers pointing away from the operator

Tension meter for measuring all kinds of tapes and bands, such as textile ribbons, films, foils, fiber bunches, etc.

Note: This model does not include a material thickness compensator and filament guide

Features

Dual-flanged outer guide rollers with various widths, from 7 mm to 50 mm (single-flanged rollers optional)
Built-in mounting holes permit fixed installation for continuous tension measurement
Ball-bearing mounted, tape rollers
41mm Ø scale
Certificate of Compliance with the order 2.1 according DIN EN 10204 is included
Special finger support located on the rear side reduces the effort to move the outer roller assembly
Everything in operator's view:
- the guide rollers
- the measured material
- the readings
Each instrument is individually calibrated for highest accuracy
Rugged aluminium housing
Optionally available: Inspection Certificate 3.1 according DIN EN 10204 with calibration report

Other tension ranges, measuring head widths and material path calibrations available on request. Other units of measure available, such as g or kg. * SCHMIDT calibration material textile ribbon or film, depending on tension range and roller width ** Outer distance between outside guide rollers Special calibration using customer supplied samples is recommended, if process material differs significantly from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity or shape. For this purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.

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 the scale.	Facilitates acquisition of the running material when measuring high tensions. Reduces force necessary to extend outer rollers: Recommended for tension ranges of 10 daN and higher.	Retains the highest measured value (PEAK). Available for mechanical tension meters.
