ET Series (without fig.)
Model ETM: Electronic tension meters for hard to reach and limited access space applications.

Special features:

• 3 operating modes:

• NORMAL: for standard use.

• DAMPING: mode to ensure steady readings, when tension fluctuates (electronic damping).

• PEAK: for retaining the highest reading reached during the measuring period.

• Hold: On- demand storage of a single tension value.

• Guide rollers are mounted on long shafts to reach into tightest places.

DX Series ( without fig.)
Model DXK:

Tension meter for measuring warp threads on weaving machines. Large reference frame (15 x 17 cm) for precise readings.

Model DXK measures the warp thread tension while the weaving machine is not running. We recommend always measuring the same number of ends, such as 5 or 10 ends (repeat of pattern) or only a single end at time. During measurement make sure that the ends are not pulled or pressed out of their alignment.

Special features:

• Width of the sensing pin 10 mm

• Reference frame assures a stable, perpendicular position.

• 3 measuring ranges up to 2000 cN.
