Description

Special Features

• Tension meter ETPB and ETPX with ceramic pins mounted on long shafts to reach into tightest places

• Hand-held instrument with non-rotating ceramic pins (outer pins V-grooved) for line speed max. 6000 m/min, for line speed up to max. 2000 m/min model ETB or model ETX may be used

• Coloured, backlight TFT display with 3 different display modes
– numeric
– numeric with live bargraph
– numeric with graph (time-tension)

• The display rotates in 90° steps for better reading

• Automatic “Zero-Setting” in each measuring position using a special sensor technique

• Selectable units of measurement: cN, g, N and lb

• Very high data sampling rate (internal 1 kHz)

• Storage of MIN, MAX, last reading, average and standard deviation per measuring interval

• User-set MIN and MAX alarms with indication of TFT display if reading is out of limits

• Adjustable electronic damping for better reading when tension fluctuates

• 3 separate calibration material memory locations for custom calibrations

• Calibration adjustment for fine tuning of the calibration if material differs from the used calibration material

• Menu set-up in English or German language

Standard Features

• Rugged aluminium housing

• LiPo accumulator (approx. 20 hours continuous operation) with AC adapter

• CE certified, interference resistant against static electrifications

• Certificate of Compliance with the order 2.1 according EN 10204 is included

• Optionally available: Inspection Certificate 3.1 according EN 10204 with calibration report

Additional Special Features ETPX

• The tension meter ETPX can be connected to a PC using the USB interface to monitor readings constantly on a PC
• Memory for 60.000 readings

• 5 different memory modes can be selected by the operator:

  • Mode S: only statistical values per series are displayed
  • Mode H: storage of the X-Y-diagram for reviewing after finishing a series of measurement
  • Mode C: continuous logging over a user set time and max. 999 series of measurement (2 Hz)
  • Mode F: as C with higher sampling rate (200 Hz)
  • Mode D: storage of single readings and statistic

Model ETPX can be connected to a PC with the USB cable. With the software SW-TI3 »Tension Inspect 3« readings can be displayed, statistically analyzed and saved. For more information see “Standard Accessories ETPX”
