Overview
The MK1503 is a resistance strain-gauge tension sensor that watches the pull on moving or stationary web material and converts that deformation into a clean electrical signal, closing the loop on tension control. Steady, accurate feedback keeps webs from stretching, breaking or running slack, protecting both product quality and line speed.
Key Features
- High accuracy (0.3%F.S) for precise measurement
- Aluminum alloy elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
- Sealed to IP65 for reliable operation in harsh environments
- Standard output 1.5 ± 0.2%mV/V, compatible with common indicators
- Compact design for straightforward integration
Applications
Runs on lithium-cell winding and coating machines, spinning, weaving and finishing textile lines, gravure presses, bag makers and labelers, paper and film winders, and wire drawing, stranding and extrusion equipment.
