Mode C: continuous logging over a user set time and different series of measurement (2 Hz)
Mode F: fast, continuous logging over a user set time and different series of measurement (1000 Hz)
Mode D: storage of single readings and statistic
• 9 Material memory locations for customer made calibrations
• Software Tension Inspect 3 for displaying real-time readings on a PC and to store them into a file
• Wi-Fi modul for wireless communication with a PC (optional)
Function of basic instrument DTS
• Tension meter DTX with large, backlight LCD-display
• 3 different display modes:
– numeric
– numeric with bargraph
– numeric with graph (Time-Tension)
• The display rotates in 90° steps for better reading
• New, unique, force reduced material catching system
• Thickness compensation: to reach highest accuracy the diameter of the material to be measured can be set with a wheel and will be displayed in the screen (not available for all models)
• Automatic „Zero-Setting“ in each measuring position using a special sensor technique
• 4 Material memory locations for customer made calibrations
• Calibration adjustment for fine tuning of the calibration if material differs from the used calibration material
• Programmable MIN- and MAX alarms: indication in the display, if reading is out of limits
• High speed data sampling (internal 8 kHz) and recording of MIN-, MAX-, last reading, PEAKS, average and standard deviation
• Selectable units of measurement: cN, daN, g, kg, N, lb
• Menu set-up in English or German language
• Flexible menu set-up to meet operators demand
• Some functions can be password protected
Standard Features
• Everything in operator’s view:
– the guide rollers
– the measured material
– the readings
• Filament guide and roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material
• Ball-bearing mounted, V-grooved guide rollers
• Rubberized handle provides a secure hold in the operators‘ hand
• Tension meter DTX with rugged aluminium housing
• LiPo Accumulator (approx. 40 hours continuous operation) with AC adapter
