Before installing the Tensioncells, refer to
machine drawings, or other documentation
to determine the mounting angle. If the
mounting angle is not specified, mount the
Tensioncells so that the Tensioncell load line
(OL) bisects the wrap angle and aligns with
the Resultant Force (RF).
The Tensioncells are mounted to the machine
frame with a 5/8-11 UNC bolt. The bolt is in line
with the centerline of the shaft support bushing.
This allows the Tensioncells to be rotated
around the centerline of the roll so that the
Tensioncell load line (OX) aligns with the
Resultant Force (RF).

To install the Tensioncells:
1. Drill a 5/8" diameter hole through each side
of the machine frame at the measuring roll
location. The holes must be in line with each
other and roll centerline to insure that the roll
is level.
2. Fasten the Tensioncell to the machine frame
with the 5/8-11 UNC mounting bolt.
3. Rotate the Tensioncell to the proper mount-
ing angle and tighten the mounting bolt.

4. Drill a #6 (.204) hole concentric with the 1/4"
hole in the locating tab.
5. Remove the Tensioncell to provide clearance
to tap the hole for a 1/4-20 thread.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for the Tensioncell
for the other end of measuring roll shaft.
7. Loosen, but do not remove, the four screws
in the bottom of the shaft support block
enough to slide the Tensioncells on the roll
shaft.
Note: The mounting angle must be the
same for both Tensioncells and the Load
Plate for both units must face in the same
direction.
8. Position the roll with the Tensioncells in the
machine and fasten them to the machine
frame with the mounting bolts. Tighten the
bolts enough to allow the Tensioncells to be
rotated to the desired mounting angle.
9. Rotate the Tensioncells to align the locating
tab with the 1/4-20 threaded hole. Lock the
Tensioncells in position against the machine
frame using a 1/4-20 x 1/2 socket head cap
screw.
10. Tighten the mounting bolt on each unit.
11. Align the measuring roll so that there is no
mechanical binding or friction.
12. Tighten the four screws in the bottom of
each shaft support block.
Note: The mechanical stops are factory set
to provide 1000% overload protection.
