PT-100 Pocket Tension Meter for Circular Knitting
Measuring Range: 0.5 - 100.0 grams or cN
This new portable electronic pocket tension meter is designed for measurement of low tensions of fibers, yarns. etc. typically found on circular knitting machines etc.
It is battery-powered and pocket-sized for convenient storage and features and extremely small measuring head for applications with limited access space
It uses a unique 180 degree material wrap to provide for accurate readings while the machine is in operation.
Easy Slide-In material threading by cone shaped guide roller and turning the instrument 180 degrees
- Continuous automatic "zero setting" in all measuring positions insures highest accuracy and repeatability
- Adjustable electronic damping provides a more steady value as compared to constantly fluctuation tension values
- V-Grooved Ball-bearing guide rollers with measuring head width of 24 mm (outer distance of guide rollers)
- Compact aluminum housing is rugged and features an easy to read LCD Display
- NIST-Traceable Calibration Certificate & Test Report is optionally available
- User-set measuring units of Grams or cN and can be used in right or left hand as desired
- Rechargeable battery provides approx. 40 hours of continuous use
- Each instrument is individually calibrated for highest accuracy and is CE Certified
