The Correx Tension Gauge allows easy measurement of small mechanical forces. It generates a counter force with the feeler tip, until the subject is raised or takes the desired measuring position. The maximum indicator remains at the last highest power that has been achieved and can be read subsequently.

The feeler arm must always be at right angles to the direction of the force. The measurements can be made in both directions – clockwise and anti-clockwise.

Typical testing and checking include:

• Controls with adjustable frictional torque
• Spring tension in micro switches and all types of relay contacts
• Contacts etc. in motor vehicles
