DTR Tension Readout

Accurate.  Large Readout Interface.  Easy to Install.  The DTR Digital Tension Readout is an accurate digital readout for the measurement and display of tension in a moving web, strand, wire or narrow tape. 

The DTR can be used with load cells to measure and display the web tension forces acting on any non-driven idler roll or sheave at any position where the wrap angle of the web does not change.  The DTR Amplifies an electric signal from one load cell for a narrow web, or two load cells for a wide web, and displays the measurement tension on the four digit LED meter.

Adjustments for the roll weight, maximum tension, scaling of the 0 to 10 VDC output and decimal point location are conveniently located behind the snap-on front cover.  The amplifier of the DTR has low drift and high linearity with a gain control range of 8:1 and tare adjustment of up to 50% of the load cell rating.  An auxiliary 0 to 10 VDC or 0 to -10 VDC output is provided for interfacing to other products or systems.
