Belt Tension Meter

The belt tension meter calculates the tension value by measuring the vibration frequency or deformation level of the belt. It is used to detect the tightness of belts in transmission systems, helping to determine whether adjustments to the tensioning device are necessary during equipment maintenance to prevent slipping or excessive wear.
Selection
When selecting, consider whether the measurement range covers common tension values, the suitability for belt types and widths, the operating environmental temperature and humidity conditions, the instrument accuracy and calibration cycle, as well as whether the portability and data recording functions meet on-site requirements.
