1-3.

DESCRIPTION

Used extensively, it is considered the standard of the industry in many countries,

and has proven it’s durably under long and continual service. Each instrument is suitable for use over a

wide range of tension measurements and different cable sizes.
Firm positive 3-point cable grip prevents dislodgement when instrument hanging free on control cable.
The T60 requires no alternate riser for the various size cables. There are no losable parts in the T60.
The instrument is always ready for instant use. An easy to operate, accurate, built-in gage eliminates
guess work as to size of cable to be tested. Simple, comfortable lever grip permits one hand operation
without  operator  fatigue.  In  severe  cold,  service  mittens  or  gloves  may  be  worm  without  any  loss
efficiency of operation.
A simple lock holds dial pointer at exact reading on cables in areas where instrument cannot be seen.
A  touch  unlocks  the  pointer  preparatory  for  the  next  reading.  Large,  clear  numerals  make  readings
easy  and  accurate.  Bezel  is  easily  turned  to  the  correct  zero  setting  for  the  proper  cable  size,
determined  by  the  gage  in  the  handle  head.  The  T60  is  a  durable  precision  instrument  and  is  not
damaged by use on cable tensions beyond its range.
The  cable Tensiometer  is a  hand-held  instrument.  A  jaw is located at the top  of instrument.  Actual
contact on the cable is made by the riser block and the two sectors located in the jaw.  A sliding yoke
slides up the frame of the instrument to provide a measuring force.  A dial indicator is located at the
bottom of the instrument to give the actual tension indication.  An actuating handle is pivoted at the
center of the instrument and is motivated by a trigger spring within the body of the  Tensiometer.  A
pointer lock button is situated just above the dial indicator and a handle latch is located on the left side
of the frame to engage the detent notch of the actuating handle. (See figure 1)
