A '''belt tensioner''' is used to create a generally constant tension on a [[belt]] as it changes in length due to normal wear, or due to changes in span lengths due to span speed differences, wherein the belt is driven by a single drive pulley from the output shaft of the engine and wherein the belt rotates driven pulleys, each operating an automotive accessory.
