These Operating Instructions refer to Model DN1 of the DN Series.
The individual models of the DN Series are also available with the
following modifications (customized versions):
- Special tension ranges
- Customized measuring head width for applications with limited access
space
- Customized distance between the two outer guide rollers to minimize
deflection of the material
- Calibration for material path other than standard (vertical)
- Calibration to different units of measure, such as g or kg
2.1 Specifications
* Depending on model, either width of filament guide or outer distance between outside
guide rollers.
** Suitable for 95% of applications. PA = Polyamide Monofilament
If the material to be measured differs significant from the SCHMIDT calibration
material in diameter, rigidity, shape, etc., we recommend calibration using custom-
er material. For this purpose, a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.
