A major difficulty in installing transmission belts is in achieving the correct belt tension. Lifetime support and reliability of bearings and transmission belts largely depends on optimally adjusted belt tension. In the case of linear actuators, only a correctly adjusted belt tension provides the best possible positional accuracy.
The belt tensioning device RSM2000 allows the measurement of the actual belt tension. The RSM2000 can be used with all industrial transmission belts such as V belts, timing belts, poly V belts, etc.
The microcontroller-based RSM2000 measures vibrations through a highly sensitive sensor and calculates the tension by numerically filtering the Eigen frequency of the tensioned belt. Given the specific mass of a belt and its free vibrating length, the RSM2000 provides the correct belt tension in Newtons.
The RSM2000 comes with several useful features, such as a language switch, user-programmable standard values for specific mass and belt length and an 'in-sensor body-integrated' trigger button. Optionally, an RS232 port for data output of the previous 50 measurements is available.
