Special Features
Additional functions in comparison to basic instrument DTSE
- Memory for 60.000 readings
- USB interface
- Tension meter DTXE with 5 different memory modes:
Mode S: statistics only
Mode H: storage of the X-Y-diagram for reviewing after finishing a series of measurement (e.g. short time spooling)
Mode C: continuous logging over a user set time and different series of measurement (2 Hz)
Mode F: fast, continuous logging over a user set time and different series of measurement (1000 Hz)
Mode D: storage of single readings and statistic - 10 Material memory locations for customer made calibrations
- Software Tension Inspect 3 for displaying real-time readings on a PC and to store them into a file

Function of basic instrument DTSE
- Small measuring head width with of only 36 mm for measurements at positions with limited space
- Turned-up outer finger edges guide the running filament into the roller grooves
- Length of measuring head approx. 64 mm
- Small, ball-bearing mounted, V-grooved guide rollers
- Calibration with Polyamide Monofilament (PA)
- Tension meter DTXE with large, backlight LCD-display
- 3 different display modes:
– numeric
– numeric with bargraph
– numeric with graph (Time-Tension) - The display rotates in 90° steps for better reading
- New, unique, force reduced material catching system
- Automatic „Zero-Setting“ in each measuring position using a special sensor technique
- 4 Material memory locations for customer made calibrations
- Calibration adjustment for fine tuning of the calibration if material differs from the used calibration material
- Programmable MIN- and MAX alarms: indication in the display, if reading is out of limits
- High speed data sampling (internal 8 kHz) and recording of MIN-, MAX-, last reading, PEAKS, average and standard deviation
- Selectable units of measurement: cN, daN, g, kg, N, lb
- Menu set-up in English or German language
- Flexible menu set-up to meet operators demand
- Some functions can be password protected
