The new belt tension chart has been standardized. The belt tension
chart eliminates confusion about the correct belt tension to use.
Studies were completed with different belt suppliers and the
information that was gathered from the studies was developed into a
new belt tension for each belt size.
The chart does not apply to belts that use a spring loaded tensioner.
For more accurate results, a Clavis frequency gauge should be used in
order to measure the natural frequency of the belt. By the use of a
formula, the natural frequency is converted into the belt tension force.
If the Clavis frequency gauge cannot be used, then use the
- - - appropriate Kent-Moore belt tension gauge to measure the belt tension
force.
When matched sets of belts are used, check the tension of all the belts
in order to verify that the lowest belt is in the acceptable tolerance
range. Variations in tension between the belts can vary by as much as
65 lbs.
In order to determine the tension of a "banded" belt, refer to the chart
above. Multiply the tension value of the belt by the number of belts
that are banded together.Two 1/2 inch belts would require a used belt
tension equal to twice the value of the used belt tension for one 1/2
inch belt (2 X 80 = 160 lb).
