6 Tension Ranges
0-100 g up to 0-5.00 Kg



Large 70 mm aluminum rollers minimize bending of material which might damage or break the fragile filament.

The outer rollers are mounted on a movable plate to minimize contact when measurements are not being made.
FEATURES

70mm V-grooved rollers are rated for speeds up to 5000 m/min

Specify TE-CABLE-CC
5 ft. connecting cable (optional, longer lengths are available upon request)

Frequency response of 100 Hz

Precision strain gauge sensing insures highest accuracy

Surface mount electronics provide long-term reliability

Optional rollers are available for a wide variety of material profiles

0-1 V DC output, proportional to tension (0-10 V DC optional)
