PT-100-L Pocket Tension Meter for Circular Knitting
Measuring Range: 0.5 - 100.0 grams or cN
This new portable electronic pocket tension meter is designed for measurement of low tensions of fibers, yarns. etc. typically found on circular knitting machines etc.
The PT-100-L is also capable of measuring the speed and length of the yarn/fiber from each feeder using the supplied magnetic sensor. It is battery-powered and pocket-sized for convenient storage and features and extremely small measuring head for applications with limited access space.
Easy Slide-In material threading by cone shaped guide roller and turning the instrument 180 degrees
- Continuous automatic "zero setting" in all measuring positions insures highest accuracy and repeatability
- Adjustable electronic damping to provide steady tension readings
- V-Grooved Ball-bearing guide rollers with measuring head width of 24 mm (outer distance of guide rollers)
- Compact aluminum housing is rugged and features an easy to read LCD Display
- NIST-Traceable Calibration Certificate & Test Report is optionally available
- User-set measuring units of Grams or cN and can be used in right or left hand as desired
- Rechargeable battery provides approx. 40 hours of continuous use
- Each instrument is individually calibrated for highest accuracy and is CE Certified
