Metrecount MC1 is a well-proven linear sensor (webmeter) that has:
An accuracy of 0.05% with calibration.
A long-life wheel
Low contact pressure
Web drift tracking
Vibration damping
Re-calibration support
Simple mounting and connection
Contact weight:
200g

Lifted signal:
1 to 50 mA, 5 to 30 VDC
MC1 advantages:
Does not suffer with loss of accuracy from harmonic vibration in the vertical plane.
Ultra low friction bearings remove “drag”.
High friction coating removes slip between wheel and material.
Universal joint allows horizontal tracking.
Application includes almost all web delivered materials such as paper, cloth and foil.
Vertical rest position if sensor is not required or if sensor is undergoing maintenance.
Signal from sensor to indicate that wheel is in vertical rest position.
Wheel of sufficient diameter to clear web-up bars.
Calibration figure clearly indicated on the wheel.
