Suitable for tension-sensitive materials such as glass fibers and carbon fibers
FEATURES OF MODEL XTF SERIES
1. Patented Auto-Zero Function: Automatically zeros the instrument in any orientation, enhancing measurement accuracy and operational convenience.
2. Wire Diameter Compensator: Compensates for measurement errors caused by variations in wire diameter, ensuring high precision across different material sizes.
3. Ergonomic Threading Mechanism with Labor-Saving Handle: Facilitates easy capture and positioning of the material under test.
4. V-Grooved Aluminum Guide Rollers with Ball Bearings: Provide smooth material guidance and reduced friction for accurate readings.
5. Rugged, Slip-Resistant Aluminum Housing: Offers durability and resistance to electrical interference.
6. LiPo Lithium-Ion Polymer Battery: Delivers up to approximately 60 hours of continuous operation.
7. In-Line Visual Layout: The material under test, guide rollers, and display are aligned in the same plane, allowing simultaneous observation of readings, roller engagement, and material behavior.
8. Multi-Material Calibration Capability: Supports precise calibration for up to 10 different materials. Combined with the wire diameter compensator, this extends the usable linear measurement range.
9. Full-Character Menu-Driven Configuration: Intuitive and straightforward setup and operation.
10. Selectable Units of Measure: Depending on the instrument range and user requirements, displayed values can be shown in g, kg, cN, N, daN, or lb.
11. Comprehensive Data Logging: Records maximum, minimum, peak, and average values during measurement. Also stores up to 10 discrete measurement values in memory.
12. Programmable Trend Bar Graph: Visual indication of tension variation with user-definable high/low limits. Combines the precision of digital readout with the intuitive trend visibility of analog meters.
13. Fine Adjustment of Displayed Value: Allows on-site adjustment of readings to match slight material deviations from calibration standards without requiring a full recalibration procedure.
14. Password-Protected Settings: Enhances instrument security by preventing unauthorized changes to configuration parameters.
15. Dual Display Modes: The tension meter provides two display formats, merging the accuracy of an electronic meter with the trend-monitoring convenience of a mechanical dial indicator.
