The Series TNP Digital Torque Meter is a precision instrument for
measuring OPEN and CLOSE torque values for various applica-
tions. The TNP Torque Meter is used in medical, pharmaceutical,
industrial quality control, R&D and countless other torque appli-
cations.
As a cap torque analyzer, the TNP repeatedly determines bottle
closure and breakaway torque. Its wide memory capacity is ca-
pable of storing 1,000 data points, including Average, Maximum
and Minimum values. A HI-GO-LO LED comparator feature can be
utilized for large batch testing to ensure overall product quality.
The TNP is a portable device powered with internal rechargeable
batteries or through provided universal AC adapter/charger.
Designed with a small footprint, it can easily be transferred be-
tween the shop floor and laboratory taking up little space when
operating. The TNP Torque Meter comes standard with USB con-
nection and cable for easy PC/Software interface. Combined with
the free “Digitorq” Software, statistical testing, graphing and anal-
ysis can be performed.
Each package includes the following:
• Operations Manual
• Software Installation Disk (Digitorq Software)
• Warranty Card
• USB A to USB B communication cable
• Universal AC adapter (100-240 VAC)
• Set of 30 mm chuck pins (4 pieces)
