RUNNING LINE TENSIOMETERS FOR RUGGED, COMPACT &
ACCURATE CABLE TENSION MONITORING
Oceanographic applications and land-based winch operations are ideal
applications for running line
tensiomenters. These rugged, compact, and accurate cable tension
monitoring units are the perfect
solution when retrofitting existing winches to enable line tension, speed,
and payout monitoring.
Each of Dillon’s running line tensiometers feature a rugged, compact
design, high accuracy count
and/or force sensors. All of our tension meters are easy to setup with an
instrumented, and removable,
center sheave. Standard models are available for applications ranging from
20 to 800 KIPS, and wire rope
diameters up to4.25 inches.

REAL
TIME LINE CONTROL WITH LCI-90I DISPLAY
The tensiometer measurements are converted into an electrical signal
that displays tension, payout, and speed readings on an LCI-90i.
When using the LCI-90i display, the system allows winch operators to
do real-time parameter monitoring–giving them the maximum
flexibility in line control, sensor calibration, and data logging.
DILLON’S RUNNING LINE TENSIOMETERS MEASURE LOADS UP TO 800,000 LBS
Built to last with high
quality stainless steel plates ideal for marine and offshore
applications, Dillon’stensiometers allow for the flexibility to
measure loads from zero to 800,000 lbs. Force and count sensors are
located in a removable center sheave, enabling easy installation
without the need to cut or modify winch lines |

FIELD-PROVEN DESIGN VALIDATED BY FEA
With systems installed on rigs operated by TransOcean, Frontier,
NPCC and others, these tension
monitoring units are field proven for offshore mooring applications
and ensuring the safety of oceanographic payloads. Sealed ball
bearings, and stainless steel shafts and pins with zinc plated alloy
steel sheaves (hardened to Rockwell C58-C60), make these compact
units rugged enough to handle the harshest environments.
