The Series TNP Digital Torque Meter is a precision instrument for 
measuring OPEN and CLOSE torque values for various applica-
tions.

 

The TNP Torque Meter is used in medical, pharmaceutical, 

industrial quality control, R&D and countless other torque appli-
cations.

As a cap torque analyzer, the TNP repeatedly determines bottle 
closure and breakaway torque. Its wide memory capacity is ca-
pable of storing 1,000 data points, including Average, Maximum 
and Minimum values. A HI-GO-LO LED comparator feature can be 
utilized for large batch testing to ensure overall product quality. 
The TNP is a portable device powered with internal rechargeable 
batteries or through provided universal AC adapter/charger.  

Designed with a small footprint, it can easily be transferred be-
tween the shop floor and laboratory taking up little space when 
operating. The TNP Torque Meter comes standard with USB con-
nection and cable for easy PC/Software interface. Combined with 
the free “Digitorq” Software, statistical testing, graphing and anal-
ysis can be performed.

Each package includes the following:
• Operations Manual
• Software Installation Disk (Digitorq Software)
• Warranty Card
• USB A to USB B communication cable
• Universal AC adapter (100-240 VAC)
• Set of 30 mm chuck pins (4 pieces)
• TNP unit
