TI17B & TI18B TrueTension™ Amplifiers

A versatile, single-channel tension transducer interface for monitoring tension in any zone on web or filament processing machinery.

The TI17B & TI18B TrueTension™ amplifiers are devices that power a tension transducer (or a pair of shaft-end mounted transducers) installed in a web or filament path.  The transducer return signal is scaled to provide a proportional 0-10 VDC or 4-20 mA output to a PLC, drive or display meter.

The primary difference between the TI17B and TI18B amplifiers is their power input requirements. The TI17B operates on 115 VAC 60Hz (230 VAC 50Hz optional) while the TI18B operates on 24 VDC.
