Dual-flanged outer guide rollers with various widths, from 7 mm to 30 mm (single-flanged rollers optional)
For certain tension ranges and materials, it is possible to supply roller widths of 41 mm. Inquire.
Large, backlight LCD-display with 3 different displays: numeric, numeric with live load bar, numeric with graph (time-tension)
Display automatically rotates in 90° steps (or can be locked in any desired position)
Built-in Diameter Compensator System is used to adjust calibration curve for highest accuracy. Diameter is set with wheel and shown on display
Automatic "Zero-Setting" in all measuring positions using built-in gravity sensor
4 Seperate Calibration Material memory locations for custom calibrations (can be performed by end-user and saved with alpha-numeric name)
Storage of Min, Max and Last reading as well as Hi-Peak, Low-Peak, average and standard deviation
High speed internal data sampling (8 kHz) for capture of accurate Min & Max Peaks
User-set Min and Max alarms with indication on LCD if reading is out of limits
User-adjustable DAMPING is used to minimize tension fluctuations
User-Selectable units of measurement: cN, daN, g, kg, N, lb
Setup parameters can be password protected so they are not accidentally changed by the user
Re-chargeable Lithium Polymer battery lasts 40 hours (continuous use, approx)
Rugged aluminium housing with rubberized handle provides a secure and comfortable grip
NIST-Traceable Calibration Certification in optionally available
