Dillon Tensiometers monitor tension loads on wire,
rope, or cable. A proven tool for construction and
utility companies, in oil fields and manufacturing
plants.
RLT-Running Line Tensiometer
For measuring tension on running wire cable, Dillon
offers the Model RLT, the Running Line Tensiometer,
in eleven capacities from 20 pounds to 40,000 pounds.
CLT-Clamp Line Tensiometer
The Model CLT clamp line tensiometer is offered in
four capacities from 10,000 to 100,000 lb. It has
2 mV/V full scale sensitivity. Its clamp-on design
permits it to be installed in minutes at any convenient
point on a fixed position line. The CLT utilizes two
roller bearing outer sheaves and a fixed center clamping
point attached to a Dillon loadcell.
The rope load applies a tension force to the loadcell.
