Mechanical

1. Has the tension measuring system been

changed?

a. An increase or decrease in strip tension

(Refer to A on the calibration sheet for
specified strip tension.)

b. An increase or decrease in the wrap

angle. (Refer to B on the calibration sheet
for the specified wrap angle.)

If the above parameters have been changed
enough to prevent the unit from operating within
the limits of the fixed. Mechanical Stops, replace-
ment of the tensioncells required. For this modifi-
cation, the Tensioncell should be returned to the
factory with complete specifications.

2. Are the loadcells mounted securely?

3. Is tension measuring roll in proper alignment

and does it turn freely?

4. Are bearings and seals free of all binding and

stickiness? Are they worn?

Electrical

1. Are LVDTs receiving correct input voltage?

Check line voltage, fuses or circuit breakers,
and power switches. Check power supply
output and voltage to LVDTs.

2. Are all connections secure?

Check for continuity. Retighten all connec-
tions. Recheck operation.

3. Are LVDTs open or shorted?

To check, turn off power and disconnect the
input and output leads. Check coil continuity and
resistance. (Refer to Figure 11)

a. Pin A to Pin B (Primary Coil) should be in

excess of 2 megohms.

b. Pin A or Pin B to LVDT shell should be in

excess of 5 megohms.

Recalibration after Installation

Wall Mounted Tensioncells can be relocated
around the center of the measuring roll. The
theory of this operation is explained in the
Description of Operation on Page 5. If this pro-
cedure cannot accomplish the necessary
changes because the tension requirements are
extremely different than the original application,
it will be necessary to return the Tensioncells to
the factory for a different Tensioncell.

c. Pin C to Pin D (Secondary Coil) should

be approximately 20,000 ohms.

d. Pin C or Pin D to LVDT shell should be in

excess of 5 megohms.

If LVDT circuits are open or shorted, replace the
Tensioncell LVDT. Contact Warner Electric with
Tensioncell model number and serial number.
