MEDIDOR DE TENSION DE CORREAS con rango 10-900 Hz, PCE
The belt tension meter is an optical measuring instrument used to determine belt tension. It consists of a handheld device and a sensor connected via a semi-rigid probe. The device measures belt tension when the system is at a standstill. A small tap with a hammer is enough to make the belt vibrate. The sensor detects the natural vibration frequency and displays the value on the screen.
Using this frequency, and optionally entering the belt length and mass, the device can calculate the belt tension. However, entering these values is not required to perform a measurement. The unit can be switched between Newtons (International System of Units) and Pound-Force (Imperial System). The display always shows the measured frequency in Hz. If the belt length and mass are entered, the device additionally displays the belt tension in Newtons. Navigation is easy thanks to the intuitive graphical menu, which is available in six languages.
The device also includes a memory function for quality control purposes. It can store up to 750 measurement values, divided into 15 files with 50 values each.
Optional accessories include a carrying case, hammer, tripod, and a longer semi-rigid probe with a spiral cable.
Why is it necessary to measure belt tension?
Belt tension measurement is essential to ensure optimal maintenance of machines and installations. Maximum belt lifespan is achieved only when the belt is installed according to its specifications—this means correct tensioning and precise pulley alignment. With a belt tension meter, the exact belt tension can be determined while the system is stopped.
