PA: 0.20 mm Ø ** Suitable for 95% of all applications. PA = Polyamide Monofilament. If the material to be measured differs significant from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity, shape, etc., we recommend calibration using customer supplied material. For this purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.
The ID plate with the serial number as well as the calibration label (optional) are provided on the bottom of the instrument, the SCHMIDT Quality Seal are provided on the surface.

These factory-installed contacts are free from potential.
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 has been proven to provide the best results and is used for comparative purposes.
The question of finding the right frequency of calibration accuracy verification depends on several different factors: Operating time and load of the SCHMIDT tension meter Tolerance band defined by the customer Changes of the tolerance band compared to previous verifications of calibration Therefore, the interval between verifications must be determined by the user`s Quality Assurance Department based on the user`s experience.
