- Tractel "Dynarope HF36" Tension Meters - WLL Range from 500 daN to 40,000daN and For use with 20 to 44mm wire rope
The dynarope™ tension meter is a precision device for measuring forces in a tensioned cable or rope.
The meter can be attached directly to the cable. When the tension meter is placed on a tensioned cable, the load cell will generate a signal which is proportional to the force.
Applications: antenna wires, suspension bridges, electronics, sailing ships, etc.
There is a large variety of cables, each cable having its own characteristics such as composition, diameter, rigidity, density, etc. The database includes several basic wire rope data. We are happy to help you choose the right model and parameter settings in our wire rope database. The HF36 series have a standard USB link for managing and storing measurement results on a PC. Can also be used as stand-alone.
HF36 kit includes
Plastic case, measuring sensor, handheld display + LPT cable, USB cable, batteries and software loader light
- Can be placed directly on cable or rope
- Stand-alone or PC connection (HF36)
- Extensive wire rope database
- IP 65
- Storing measurement results
- Customized setting
- Accuracy: <1 to 5% full scale

C | Tightening Screw | I | Strain Gauges |
D | Crank Support | J | LEMO Plug |
E | Jaw | K | Rotary Stop Block |
F | Axle of the Sheave | L | LEMO Cable |
LEMO connector is a « push-pull » connector.
The LEMO self-latching system allows the connector to be mated or unmated by simply pushing or pulling axially on the outer release sleeve.
Any rotation of the plug while in the socket will damage the connector and hence the connection between the sensor and the display.
