The dual-channel system sets the product apart from conventional sensor systems. Thanks to the redundancy provided it ensures constant wire and press felt tension and therefore also ensures the maximum possible reliability in paper manufacture. Unlike conventional systems, the signal filtering and amplification are integrated into the sensor ensuring high measuring accuracy and preventing transmission errors.
