MSI Dyna-Clamp Tension Meter, 12,500 lbf
The MSI Dyna-Clamp tension meter has a wire rope engagement site window to maintain accurate tension readings. The Dyna-Clamp features an easy-turn power screw, to make simplify measuring wire rope tension. The IP65 rating allows for the tension meter to be used in difficult environmental. The MSI Dyna-Clamp also complies to OSHA requirements by allowing for a safety strap to be connected. Without changing equipment, an end user can measure wire rope from 3/16" to 1" in diameter. The two part LCD display can be easily seen on even the sunniest of days. The first part of the display prominently shows the active tension measurement and the second display can be configured to show wire rope diameter, average tension, or peak tension.
