  • Page 10: Operating Procedure

    Operating Procedure Requirements: - Tension meter switched on (Ch. 3.3.2). - Damping factor set, if necessary (Ch. 3.4.2). - Zero adjustment carried out (Ch. 3.3.5). LEVER REFERENCE FRAME fig. 3.4 MEAS. ROLLER OUTER ROLLERS To insert the process material: - Push the LEVER in the direction of the arrow to lift the REFERENCE FRAME and the OUTER ROLLERS.

  • Page 11: Switching On Damping Mode

    3.4.1 Switching on Damping Mode The KXE 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.
