Product Introduction

The ABB PFTL101B 5.0KN 3BSE004191R1 is a pillow block style Pressductor tension load cell with 5kN rated measuring force. It adopts magnetoelastic Pressductor sensing principle to convert web tension force into low-drift analog measurement signal. Matched with ABB PFSK series signal conditioning boards, it achieves closed-loop tension control for continuous web processing lines. Featuring robust alloy steel construction, high overload capability and excellent long-term stability, this tension sensor provides precise horizontal force measurement for paper, coating, plastic film and wire winding industries.

Content Details

ABB PFTL101B 5.0KN 3BSE004191R1 is a precision pillow block tension transducer designed to be installed on idle roller bearing housings for horizontal web tension measurement. With 5kN rated load capacity, the sensor uses magnetoelastic technology. Applied tension changes the magnetic permeability inside the sensing element and generates stable mV/V output signals. Compared with traditional strain gauge sensors, this design effectively reduces fatigue drift and maintains high linearity and repeatability during continuous long-cycle production. This load cell supports strong overload resistance and can endure sudden tension spikes caused by web break, speed acceleration or deceleration without permanent damage. It measures only horizontal tension force and automatically excludes interference from roller dead weight, improving measurement accuracy. Raw sensing signals are transmitted to ABB PFSK series processing boards, forming a complete tension control system. The system dynamically adjusts drive speed to maintain constant web tension, effectively preventing web wrinkling, stretching or snapping, improving finished product quality and cutting material loss.

The sensor housing is built with solid high-strength alloy steel and sealed structure, delivering outstanding shock resistance, vibration resistance and electromagnetic interference immunity. It can operate stably in workshop environments with dust, moisture and motor noise. The standard shielded cable ensures reliable signal transmission and reduces external noise interference. After installation, it does not require frequent recalibration and reduces daily maintenance workload. This tension load cell can cooperate with ABB PFSK control boards and integrate into ABB Advant DCS tension control systems. Before shipment, each ABB PFTL101B 5.0KN unit undergoes force calibration, signal performance testing and aging inspection to verify linearity and repeatability, ensuring reliable 24-hour continuous operation for paper machines, coating lines, plastic film production and cable winding lines.
