Tension Sensors TE
TE
General Purpose Tension Sensor

10 Tension Ranges
0-50 g up to 0-50.0 Kg
Accurately measure the running line tensions of yarns, fibers, wires, and similar filaments. Compact size for easy installation.
Built-in signal conditioning with ZERO and SPAN pots provide a high-level, analog output to minimize the chance for signal interference.
NEW RS232 Serial Output (optional)
Features
- Precision strain gauge sensing for highest accuracy and repeatability
- 0-1 V DC output, proportional to tension (0-10 V DC optional)
- Roller shells are available in chrome-plated steel, hard-coated aluminum, plastic and ceramic
- Frequency response of 100 Hz
- Optional 10ft. connecting cable, TE-CABLE-CN is recommended. Longer lengths are available.
- RS232 Serial output (optional) allows you to connect your sensor to our SensorView software
