The PCE-BTM 2000 is a handheld belt tension meter for measuring belt tension in Newton or pound force and belt frequency in Hz using an optical sensor on a flexible gooseneck. It features a high-contrast graphic display with six-language menu support, stores up to 750 measured values in 15 sets of 50 points, and measures frequencies from 10 to 900 Hz with an accuracy of ±(1% of reading + 4 digits) and repeatability of ±1 Hz. Resolution is 0.1 Hz below 100 Hz and 1 Hz above. The device operates on three AAA batteries, measures 150 × 80 × 38 mm, and weighs approximately 200 g including batteries. It complies with CE standards and functions in operating temperatures from 0 to 50 °C and storage temperatures from -20 to 65 °C, with maximum 95% relative humidity.
The belt tension gauge is an optical measuring maintenance tool for determining belt tension force. This belt tension measuring device consists of a display unit and a sensor head which is attached to a gooseneck. The belt tension measuring device measures the belt tension and the belt frequency of the belt when it is stationary. A small impulse on the belt, vertical to the tension direction, is sufficient to set the belt vibrating. The belt tension measuring device measures the natural frequency of the belt with the sensor and visualizes it on the display. The belt tension gauge can directly determine the actual tension force of the belt from the belt frequency and the optionally entered belt length and belt mass. However, it is not absolutely necessary to enter this data in order to carry out measurements directly with the belt tension gauge. The measuring units can be switched between N (SI unit) and Pound Force (US unit) in the belt tension gauge. The graphic display of the belt tension gauge always shows the measured value as belt frequency in Hz. If the belt mass and length are entered in the device, the belt tension in Newton is also displayed. The intuitive graphic menu is visualized on the high-contrast display of the gauge in six selectable languages. For further analysis and quality assurance purposes, the belt tension gauge is equipped with a memory. Up to 750 data records can be stored in the memory of the belt tension gauge in 15 sets of 50 measured values.
