Features and Benefits
The Flowserve compression type tensiometer puts the load measuring device in a compressive mode rather than in tension and provides the following benefits:
-
All parts are manufactured of NACE grade corrosion-resistant stainless steel at hardness levels that mitigate stress corrosion cracking
-
Direct cable attachment capability eliminates the need for commercial eye bolts
-
May be located at the cutting deck for easy maintenance access
-
Load cell can be unloaded without disconnecting the cable, allowing the strain gage amplifier to be zero adjusted with all components in place
-
Removal and replacement of tensiometer can be accomplished without disconnecting the cable
-
Design is compatible with existing strain gauge amplification modules and display units
