Other tension ranges and measuring head widths available on request.
Other units of measure available, such as g or kg.
* Depending on model, either width of filament guide or outer distance between outside guide rollers
** Suitable for 95% of applications - PA = Polyamide Monofilament
***MTC = Material Thickness Compensator
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.

Code A: Air Damping
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.
|
|
|
Code L: Special Lever
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.
|
|
|
Code M: Memory Pointer
Retains the highest measured value (PEAK). Available for mechanical tension meters.
