1.0 INTRODUCTION
Three long, closely-spaced slender shafts with precision guide rollers or pins attheir
ends combine with the latest in microprocessor technology to make this instrument top
choice for all limited-access, tension measuring applications.
Store up to 4000 displayed tension values in memory and statistics (Last, AVG, MIN,
MAX, MIN-PEAK, MAX-PEAK), which can be transmitted using the serial output
port.
Choice of miniature, high speed rollers for filament speeds up to 2000 m/min or non-
rotating, ceramic pins for speeds to 6000 m/min. Uses part number ETMX or ETMPX
to designate model with ceramic pins.
Available Models - The standard series is also available with the following
modifications. (Special calibration using customer supplied material.)
* Outer distance between outside guide rollers / pins
** Suitable for 95% of all applications. PA = Polyamide Monofilament.
If the material to be measured differs significant from the factory calibration material in diameter,
rigidity, shape, etc., we recommend calibration using customer supplied material. For this
purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied. International unit of tensile force:
1 cN = 1.02 g = 0.01 N
ETX: Calibration with approx. 100 m/min
ETPX: Calibration with approx. 60 m/min
