The New CHECK-LINE㈢ models JS and ZED employ a strain-gauge system for accurately measuring the running line tensions on a wide variety of yarns, fibers and fine wires. Its trigger-operated roller shifting mechanism makes it easy to acquire the running material.

Single-button automatic zero permits operation in any orientation while maintaining highest accuracy.

Features

Easy-to-read LCD display with auto power off.
Simple 2-key operation
Powered by two (2) AAA alkaline batteries
JS V-grooved guide rollers are rated for speeds up to 900m/min or, optionally, 2000m/min.
ZED V-grooved guide rollers are rated for speeds up to 200m/min or, optionally, 3500m/min.
Supplied in an atractive foam-fitted carrying case.
NIST Calibration available

JS Models

Miniature rollers make these models ideal for delicate yarns/fibers and fine wires as well as those applications where access space is limited.

For Spandex and similar materials, specifiy model JS-100-T.

ZED Model

This model is recommended for all other applications where miniaturized rollers are not necessary.

Notes

All models can be calibrated in cN. Replace suffix "G" with suffix "CN". Example: ZED-500-CN
JS models are calibrated using a 0.12mm diameter monofilament. ZED models are calibrated using a 0.2mm diameter monofilament.
Custom calibration with customer-supplied samples is optionally available. Inquire.
