3.4.1 Measuring in Tension Mode (Cont.)
To insert the process material:
- Place the PROCESS MATERIAL between the two rollers (fig. 3.4.1a).
- Rotate the tension meter by approx. 180 degrees (fig. 3.4.1b).
It is important to assure that the PROCESS MATERIAL runs smoothly
over the ROLLERS.
To measure the process material:
The DISPLAY now shows the measured tension values.
Error messages which might be displayed are described in Chapter 3.5.
Damping:
If tension fluctuates, the damping feature should be enabled as described in Chapter
3.4.5 or the damping factor should be adjusted as described in Chapter 3.4.6.
To remove the process material:
- Rotate the tension meter by 180 degrees.
- Remove the PROCESS MATERIAL.
3.4.2 Measuring in Speed Mode
Requirements:
Switch on the tension meter (Ch. 3.3.2) and select the speed mode
(Ch. 3.3.6).
- Insert the PROCESS MATERIAL as described in Chapter 3.4.1.
- Press the ON/OFF/ZERO key.
- The DISPLAY now shows the measured values.
3.4.3 Measuring in Length Mode
While a length measurement is active, “ : ” blinks on the display.
Continuous measurement
The measurement is performed for as long as PROCESS MATERIAL is run over the roll-
ers.
Requirements:
Switch on the instrument (Ch. 3.3.2) and select the length mode (Ch. 3.3.6) and the unit
of measure (Ch. 3.3.4).
1. Press and hold the ON/OFF key.
The length mode settings are indicated on the display.
2. Press the DAMP key until the display shows
.
3. Insert the PROCESS MATERIAL as described in Chapter 3.4.1.
This activates the length measurement.
4. Press the ON/OFF/ZERO key to zero the display and start a new measurement.
The previous reading is not saved.
5. The measurement stops when you remove the PROCESS MATERIAL as described in
Chapter 3.4.1.
