INSTALLATION

SELECTION OF SENSOR MOUNTING LOCATION

NOTE

When selecting a sensor mounting location, keep in

mind the tension sensing roll must NOT be mounted

where the web wrap can vary. Any change in wrap

angle will be sensed by the sensors as a change in

tension and indicated as such on the indicator.

MOUNTING SURFACE PREPARATION

The mounting surfaces for the Tension Sensors should be flat
and parallel. Prepare the machine frames or mounting surfaces
by removing any loose paint, rust, scale, etc.

TENSION LOADING DIRECTION

The Tension Sensors must be mounted so the applied
web force is approximately in line with the cable connector
(Figure 3).
