Our customers find them highly satisfactory in areas such as
monitoring wire line equipment on offshore installations, in cable-laying vessels
and in break-load tests. In any application where an
ordinary crane scale/dynamometer is unsuitable,
a running line monitor should be considered. Our standard capacities range from 2 to 100 tons’ tension (wires 12-72 mm ø).
A running line monitor shows the tension in a running wire line. The wire runs through three wheels at an angle inside the monitor, creating a force against the middle wheel. The middle wheel is attached to a load cell, showing wire tension. A counter wheel gives you the length of the wire passing through the monitor.
