Tensiometers

We make three different types of tensiometers for any type of offshore mooring systems, or anchor monitoring system.

Running-line – two types:

  • FRLT - Fixed running line Tensiometer, one size of rope
  • URLT – Universal running line Tensiometer, multiple sizes, up to 4” diameter

*Both can measure tension, payout, speed.

Clamp-line:

  • For the dead-end on a crane or a land oil rig (used on a line that never moves) to measure the tension on the line

RUNNING-LINE TENSIOMETER SPECIFICATIONS

  • Fixed or variable rope sizes up to 4″
  • Measures speed, payout and tension
  • Multiple mounting styles
  • High duty cycles
  • Hazardous area certification
