HKNDT Infrared Belt Tension Meter SK-500 Non‑Contact Device

Description

Product Overview

The HKNDT SK-500 is a non‑contact infrared belt tension meter designed for precise measurement of belt vibration frequencies from 10 to 800 Hz. Using infrared sensing, it converts natural belt vibrations into tension values without physical contact, preserving belt integrity. The compact unit measures 9.45 x 7.48 x 2.36 inches and weighs 1.25 lb, making it easy to transport between workstations. It features a dual‑probe system – a short probe for one‑handed operation and an extended probe for confined spaces – and a multilingual LCD that can display results in Hz, newtons (N) or pounds‑force (lbf).

Usage

Ideal for laboratory environments, manufacturing floors, and field service, the SK‑500 quickly assesses tension on V‑belts, toothed belts, and power belts. Technicians can evaluate belt health during routine maintenance, calibrate new installations, or conduct research on belt dynamics. The device’s non‑contact method eliminates wear on the belt, making it suitable for delicate or high‑speed applications where traditional contact gauges could cause damage. Its multilingual interface supports global teams, allowing engineers in the US, Europe, and Asia to operate the meter in their native language.

FAQ

Can the SK‑500 measure tension on moving belts?

Yes, the infrared sensor captures natural vibration frequencies while the belt is in operation, allowing real‑time tension assessment without stopping the equipment.

What is the accuracy of the tension readings?

The device provides frequency accuracy within ±0.5 Hz, which translates to tension accuracy of ±2 % across the specified range.

Is calibration required?

The SK‑500 is factory‑calibrated and ready to use out of the box. Periodic verification is recommended for critical applications, and calibration services are available through HKNDT support.

Can I use the meter with belts other than V‑belts?

Yes, it works with toothed belts, power belts and any belt that exhibits measurable vibration within the 10–800 Hz range.

What languages does the display support?

The LCD can be set to English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Swedish, Portuguese, Norwegian, Danish, or Finnish.
