Abstract
A tension measurement assembly includes a cable spooled on a spooling device, at least one capstan for directing the cable to a downstream point, and at least one tension measuring device attached to a fixed surface for generating a tension signal indicative of a tension force in the cable. The tension measuring device can include at least one of a tension link, an inclinometer, a tension measuring sheave with a strain axle or load pin, a plurality of load cells, and a freewheeling sheave mounted on a post instrumented with a strain gauge. The tension force is calculated from the tension signal and a cable angle of the cable at the tension measuring device.
