The Force Gage is used to precisely check the tension of belts in machines and systems, thereby ensuring optimum power transmission. This Force Gage measures the oscillation frequency of the belt and immediately calculates the belt tension, which is displayed directly in newtons. The measuring range is between 10 and 680 Hz, with an accuracy of ±1 Hz for frequencies below 100 Hz and ±1% for frequencies above 100 Hz, with a total error of less than 5%.
Special features of the device include the flexible gooseneck sensor for hard-to-reach areas and the option to directly enter the belt length, belt mass and belt width (max. 999.9 mm), which makes the calculation of the belt tension particularly precise. The Force Gage can be switched between displaying the oscillation frequency in Hz and the calculated belt tension in N. It is powered by 3 × AA batteries, making it flexible to use.
This Force Gage is primarily used in the maintenance of conveyor systems, mechanical engineering, the automotive industry and wherever belts need to be tensioned precisely to ensure the performance, safety and service life of the equipment.
