The purpose of the dynamometer is to check the nets once they have been used for a long time in the seawater. Usually in this condition the net deteriorate with a consequent loss of strength.
Test is performed by turning the hand wheel until reaching the mesh breakage. Dyna 400D
With Dyna 400D you can obtain the following information:
- Tensile strength in kg
- Stretching of the mesh in mm
- Stretching percentage of the mesh
The dynamometer is certified and allow a constant stretching of the net during the tensile test.

| 24 mm. | 58 kg |
40,00 % |

Refer to the ruler for stretching measurement an to DIN 53844 for test speed (120 mm per minute)
Stretching percentage can be calculated with the following formula:
Stretching * 100 / mesh size
The display is powered by a rechargeable battery with an operating range of 36 hours.
The dynamometer is supplied with a battery charger powered with 230 voltage
