ZED Digital Economical tension meter for limited acces | Economical low tension measuring instrument for checking fibers, yarns and fine wires in areas with limited acces. The ZED employs a strain-gauge system to measure the running line tension on a variety of yarns, fibers and fine wires accurately.
The running material can easily be acquired by the trigger-operated roller shifting mechanism. The single-button automatic zero permits operation in any orientation and guarantees simple operation and highest accuracy.
|

 Simple handling | Adjustable damping | Filament guide and roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material | Battery operated | Ball-bearing mounted, V-grooved guide rollers | NIST-traceable calibration certificate optionally available |
| »Auto-Zero setting« using a push button for measurement in different measuring positions | Easy to read LCD display | Light weight | Everything in operator's view:
- the guide rollers
- the measured material
- the readings | Housing made of high-strength plastic |

| Model |
Ranges | Measuring Head Width* mm | SCHMIDT Calibration Material** |
| ZED-200 |
1-200 | 63 | PA: 0.20 mm Ø |
| ZED-500 |
1-500 | 63 | PA: 0.20 mm Ø | | |
Other units of measure are available, such as g.
* Width of filament guide
** Suitable for 95% of applications - PA = Polyamide Monofilament
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. |
