Catalog Tension Meter

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details the specifications and features of SCHMIDT tension meters, including both hand-held and stationary models. These instruments are used for measuring tension in fibers, threads, yarns, and ropes across various industrial applications.
Specifications: Each model is calibrated according to SCHMIDT factory procedures, ensuring high accuracy, typically ±1% full scale. They operate within a temperature range of 10 - 45 ºC and can handle air humidity up to 85% RH. Housing materials vary from die-cast aluminum to plastic.
Features: Key features include large, easy-to-read scales, shock-resistant movements, and built-in material thickness compensators. Adjustable damping is available for steady tension readings. The instruments are rugged, with aluminum housings and ball-bearing mounted, V-grooved guide rollers.
Models and Ranges: Various models are listed with their respective tension ranges and calibration materials. For example, the DN Series includes models like DN1-120 with a range of 20 - 120 cN, and DN1-5000 with a range of 400 - 5000 cN. Other series, such as TEN and PT, offer different ranges and features.
Optional Accessories: Accessories include special levers for high tension ranges, air damping, and various guide roller materials. Special calibration using customer-supplied samples is also available.
Applications: These tension meters are suitable for textile manufacturing, cable production, and other industries requiring precise tension measurement.
Electronic Tension Meters: The document also covers hand-held electronic tension meters from the ZE and DT series, including models ZEF, ZED, DTS, and DTX, each catering to different tension ranges and applications.
Power Supply and Housing: Models are powered by LiPo accumulators with approximately 25-40 hours of continuous use and come with an AC adapter. Housing materials vary from aluminum to high-strength plastic.
Features and Capabilities: Real-time reading and display in X-Y diagrams, data recording as CSV files, statistical analysis, and adjustable set-points are available. The DT series features an LCD display that rotates for optimal viewing.
Model Specifications: Various models are available with different tension ranges and roller widths. Special calibration is available using customer-supplied samples.
Optional Accessories and Calibration: Wi-Fi module for wireless data transfer, various roller materials, and coatings are available upon request.
Additional Features for ET Series: Coloured, backlight TFT-display with three display modes, high data sampling rate, USB output, and memory for up to 60,000 tension values.
General Specifications: Accuracy typically ±1% FS and ±1 Digit, with adjustable electronic damping. CE approved with optional inspection certificate and calibration report.
Product Offerings: The document highlights the availability of standard and specialized rollers with different geometries and coatings. Maximum speed for rollers is specified as 2000 m/min and 3500 m/min for different models.
Company Information: Hans Schmidt & Co. GmbH, located in Waldkraiburg, Germany, has been in operation for over 75 years, offering a variety of control instruments.

Please visit us in the World Wide Web ! w -schmid ww.hans We solve tension-measuring problems. More than 75 years. Worldwide. In 1948, the founder of the company, Mr. Hans Schmidt, started selling and distributing yarns and textile machinery. He became aware of the importance which the control of tension had for production processes and soon developed and constructed a 3-Roller Tension Meter which featured one measuring roller and two guiding rollers. This ingenious principle of operation has been proved to be the best method for tension measuring. MORE THAN The 3-roller measuring system has...
