1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The TI-11 dual tension indicator is a device to output and display tension measurements. It can be used with any type of DFE tension transducer to display actual web tension on an analog or digital meter for reference by the machine operator.
. Minimizes vibration of the optional analog tension meter needle. Meter Damping • . The TI-11 Indicator is designed to operate on two ranges of AC power; Power Voltage Selection 115 Volts 60/50 Hz, and 230 Volts 60/50 Hz. A switch on the circuit board selects between the two.
TI-11 and devices connected to its outputs. However, if the jumper is removed, one of the devices connected to the TI-11 outputs MUST be grounded. This will prevent the TI-11 from floating far enough above ground potential to cause problems. If no ground connection exists, it is possible that the transducers may short-circuit to ground at the strain gages.
Figure 6 - METER MOUNTING DIMENSIONS 2.2 INSTALLING THE CIRCUIT CARD The TI-11 is plugged into a standard 19 inch rack having an opening 3U high by 14HP wide. The optional plug-in adapter may also be used. Note: The TI-11 has been tested to meet the EMC directive, and for that compliance, the unit must be...
2.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Refer to the drawing below for electrical connections to the rear connector of the TI-11. Figure 7 - ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO PLUG-IN ADAPTER Figure 8 - ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO PLUG-IN ADAPTER...
This step is only necessary if the tension meter needle does not rest on 0 when the power is turned off. Turn off power to the TI-11. Turn the adjustment screw on the rear of the meter as required to set the meter needle at 0 on the scale.
TENSION METER CALIBRATION IS COMPLETED Your TI-11 Dual Tension Indicator has been properly configured to your order at the factory. It should not be necessary to make any changes. Use the following sections only to verify the configuration or to reconfigure the indicator if your application requirements change.
(See Page 3 for description and cautions) Refer to Figures 10 and 7. Remove jumper JP101 to isolate the TI-11 from earth ground. One of the devices connected to a TI-11 output must be grounded to prevent the TI-11 from floating too far above ground potential.
SECTION 4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Your tension interface / indicator will indicate tension in your system without any further operator intervention. It is a good idea to make a check at roughly one month intervals to verify that the output returns to zero when no web is touching the transducer.
SECTION 5 CARE AND MAINTENANCE It is not necessary to perform any type of maintenance on the indicator. However you may find it worthwhile to observe whether there is a buildup of dust, debris, or moisture on or near the unit after a period of time.
Service at (603) 332-6150 for assistance. 6.2 DIAGNOSTIC CONNECTOR The diagnostic connector mounted on the front panel is used to check the TI-11 inputs and outputs without having to use an extender board to access the test points on the circuit card.
