Optional Sensors
The 508C Sonic Tension Meter comes equipped with a cord type
sensor. The cord type sensor provides the most effective results.
An optional flat flexible stick-type sensor allows one hand operation, but
it is sometimes difficult to hold the meter and sensor still enough to
maintain close and consistent clearance between the vibrating belt span
and the sensor.
An optional Inductive Sensor relies on a magnetic field rather than on
sound waves. This allows tension measurements to be taken in both
noisy and windy environments. In order for the Inductive Sensor to
function, a magnetic field must be present on the belt. This can be easily
accomplished by taping a small magnet to the back of the belt.
