Product information "LTT Linear Tensile Tester"

Tensile Test 25 N; Resolution 0.1 N; Pulling Speed 200-1,000 µm/s; Fiber Cladding Diameter 80-400 µm; Fiber Buffer 160-1,000 µm

3SAE Technologies’ LTT Linear Tensile Tester is an automated tension tester for optical fibers with cladding diameters ranging from 80 to 400 μm in diameter. The fiber clamps accommodate coatings up to 1000 μm in diameter.

The LTT Linear Tensile Tester incorporates easy, single button fiber loading and an automated tension test process. The built in LCD reports an acceptable "pass" result and maximum tension, in Newtons (N) or Kpsi, applied to the fiber during the tension test.

The LTT Linear Tensile Tester also supports destructive testing by pulling and displaying the maximum achieved tension.

The built-in LCD and keypad ensure stand-alone operation and provide the operator easy access to software adjustable clamp pressure, maximum tension, tension rate and proof test hold times in ten user selectable and customizable tension programs. These features, in combination with the compact design allow for extreme portability and flexibility for use in laboratory or production environments.

The LTT Linear Tensile Tester includes a universal AC to 12 VDC power supply and requires no additional external connections, such as air for operation or a PC for configuration. An available RS-232 port provides the ability to update the firmware and supports data collection from any appropriately configured computer.
