06LiPo lithium-ion polymer battery (approx. 60 hours continuous operation).
07The material under test, guide wheels, and screen are all in the same plane, allowing visual monitoring at a glance.
08Up to 10 materials can be precisely calibrated; linear measurement range is extended with the wire diameter compensator.
09Full-character menu setup for simple and convenient operation.
10Selectable measurement units: g, kg, cN, N, daN, lb (depending on range).
11Records Max, Min, peak Max, peak Min, and average values; stores up to 10 independent values.
12Programmable trend bar for clear visualization of tension variation range, combining analog and digital advantages.
13Fine-tuning of displayed results allows for accurate values without full recalibration for minor material deviations.
14Function settings can be password-protected for enhanced security.
15Dual display modes provide both precise digital readings and trend display advantages.
Backlit LCD display offers two different display interfaces
