* Outer distance between outside guide rollers / pins ** Suitable for 95% of all applications. PA = Polyamide Monofilament. If the material to be measured differs significantly from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity, shape, etc., we recommend calibration using customer supplied material. -
Page 6: Delivery Includes
3.1.1 ID Plate, CE Mark, Calibration Label The ID plate with the CE mark and the serial number as well as the calibration la- bel (optional) are provided on the bottom of the instrument, the SCHMIDT Quality Seal is provided on the left side. -
Page 7: Removing The Filament Guide
3.1.2 Removing the Filament Guide The tension meter is supplied with a FILAMENT GUIDE for fast and easy material acqui- sition. For application in hard-to-reach areas with limited access space, you can remove the FILAMENT GUIDE. GUIDE ROLLERS (2x) FILAMENT GUIDE MEASURING ROLLER GRUBSCREWS (3x) SETSCREWS (2x) -
Page 8: Operating Elements
Before you connect the AC adapter, verify that the supplied voltage is correct (100 V - 240 V). HANS SCHMIDT & Co. GmbH provides no warranty or liability for any damage resulting from the use of AC adapters from other manufacturers. -
Page 9: Switch-On
DISPLAY shows the readings in the default orientation. fig. 3.3.4b 3.3.5 Selecting the Unit of Measure You can set the ETB to the cN or g unit of measure, depending on the required tension range. The default setting is cN. Requirement: Tension meter switched off as described in Chapter 3.3.3. -
Page 10: Zero Adjustment Of The Measuring Position (Auto Zero)
- Tension meter switched on as described in Chapter 3.3.2. - Unit of measure selected as described in Chapter 3.3.5. To carry out zero adjustment: - Hold the ETB in the desired measuring position. Be careful to hold the instrument absolutely steady. - Press the POWER key. -
Page 11: Switching On Damping Mode
3.4.1 Switching on Damping Mode The ETB is equipped with an electronic damping which ensures steady readings when tension fluctuates. This is achieved by averaging the measured values at the set update rate. Before switching on the damping mode, it is recommended that you measure the first values without damping enabled. -
Page 12: Storing The Tension Values
(MIN PEAK) Maximum peak value (MAX PEAK) The measured data remain stored in the ETB memory even after the instrument is switched off. The stored tension values remain stored in the ETB memory even after the instrument is switched off. -
Page 13: Clearing The Etb Memory
The tension meter is ready for a new measuring period. The previously stored tension values will then be overwritten with new values. 3.5.2 Clearing the ETB Memory If values are stored in the ETB memory, the DISPLAY shows e.g. with the MEM indicator. -
Page 14: Static Verification Of Measuring Accuracy
3.7 Static Verification of Measuring Accuracy All tension meters are calibrated with standard materials - such as polyamide monofila- ment (PA) - according to the SCHMIDT factory procedure. The diameters are given in Chapter 2. Any difference in process material size and rigidity from the standard material may cause a deviation of the accuracy.In 95% of all industrial applications, the SCHMIDT calibration... -
Page 15: Dynamic Calibration Of The Etb
3.9 Static Calibration of the ETB Requirements for static calibration: - The ETB is factory calibrated for a vertical material path (fig. 3.7). Recalibration must also be carried out with a vertical material path. - One cN weight each, corresponding to 10%, 40%, 70 % and 100% of the tension range, must be provided. - Page 16 3.9 Static Calibration of the ETB (Cont.) 1st calibration point: - Hang a weight which corresponds to 10% of the tension range from the measured material, vertically, as shown in fig. 3.9 PROCESS MEASURING - Press the LEVER down all the way.
- Page 17 If the verification of the calibration according to Chapter 3.7 shows a deviation beyond the allowable tolerance and a reliable operation is no longer allowed, the instrument has to be returned to Hans Schmidt & Co GmbH for factory recalibration. Please follow the shipping instructions given in Chapter 8.
