II. What is the TNP Torque Meter?
The TNP torque meter is a portable static torque measuring device that can be
used as a quality assurance tool for various applications that require
measurement of turning (both opening and closing) and twisting.
Some of the industries that can utilize this
equipment are:
• Pharmaceutical
• Food/ Beverage
• Cosmetic products
• Packaging
Equipped with internal rechargeable batteries, the
TNP can operate as a portable DC powered
device or thru the universal AC adapter.
Designed with a small footprint it can easily be transferred to maximize use
around the shop floor or the laboratory.
The programmable HI-LO set points make this unit ideal for pass-fail testing in a
production environment.
Do not test products that are filled with liquid as the TNP
torque tester is not protected from liquid spills.
