DXF, DXL
The large diameter V groove wheel of the wire tension meter is suitable for carbon/optical fibers.
In order to reduce excessive bending of hard and brittle wires when testing tension, the handheld pointer wire tension meter uses a larger span and V-shaped groove wire pulley. In addition to the aluminum V-shaped groove pulley, there are also V-shaped groove pulleys made of engineering plastic to avoid Scratch the various fibers traveling.
Features
4 Tension ranges available
from 20 - 120 cN up to 50 - 1000 cN Mechanical tension meter with large guide rollers (32 mm groove diameter) and large center distance to minimize bending of materials
Hand-held instrument for sensitive material as optical fibres, carbon fibres, technical fibres etc up to 1.5 mm Ø
Tension meter with special guides on the bracket assembly for easy thread
Model DXL：Mechanical tension meter with large rollers and a wide roller spacing for measuring optical fibres, cat cables, buffer tubes etc. up to 10 mm Ø, as well as linear, flat material up to 10 mm width
Special Features
The analog display of tension meter DXF shows changing and fluctuating tensions fast and enables an optimal process adjustment
Large bending radius assures gentle handling of the material being measured
Roller shifting mechanism ensure easy acquisition of the running material
Special guides on the bracket assembly permit easy material acquisition
Built-in mounting holes permit fixed installation for continuous tension measurement
Special finger support located on the rear side reduces the effort to move the outer roller assembly
Standard Features
Everything in operator's view:
– the guide rollers
– the measured material
– the readings
Large, V-grooved guide rollers with 32 mm groove diameter, ball-bearing mounted
Each instrument is individually calibrated for highest accuracy
41 mm Ø scale
Tension meter with rugged aluminium housing
Certificate of Compliance with the order 2.1 according EN 10204 is included
Optionally available: Inspection Certificate 3.1 according EN 10204 with calibration report.

Specification
Available DXF and DXL Models:
Other tension ranges and measuring head widths are available on request.
Other units of measure available – g and kg.
* Outer distance between outside guide rollers
Calibration to customized material:
If process material differs significantly from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity or shape, special calibration using customer supplied samples is recommended. For this purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.
