Digital Tension Meter - ZED / ZEF

Model ZEF
0.5 - 100.0  g
1-200 g
Model ZED
1-500 g

The new CHECK-LINE models ZEF and ZED employ a strain-gauge system for accurately measuring the running line tensions on a wide variety of yarns, fibers and fine wires. Its trigger-operated roller shifting mechanism makes it easy to acquire the running material.

Single-button automatic zero permits operation in any orientation while maintaining highest accuracy.


Easy-to-read LCD display with auto power off

Simple 2-key operation

Powered by two (2) AAA alkaline batteries

ZEF V-grooved guide rollers are rated for speeds up to 900 m/min, or optionally, 2000 m/min

ZED V-grooved guide rollers are rated for speeds up to 2000 m/min, or optionally, 3500 m/min

Supplied in an attractive foam-fitted carrying case

NIST Calibration available
ZEF Models
Miniature rollers make these models ideal for delicate yarns/fibers and fine wires as well as those application where access space is limited.

For Spandex and similar materials, specify model ZEF-100-T.
ZED Models
This model is recommended for all other applications where miniaturized rollers are not necessary
.

 

ZEF Models ZED Models

Notes: 1. All models can be calibrated in cN. Replace suffix "G" with suffix "CN"
2. ZEF models are calibrated using a 0.12 mm diameter monofilament. 
    ZED models are calibrated using a 0.2 mm diameter monofilament.
3. Custom calibration with customer-supplied samples is optionally available. Inquire
