Product Introduction

The ABB PFTL101BE 2.0KN 3BSE004214R1 is a mill-duty pillow block Pressductor tension load cell with 2kN rated measuring force. It adopts magnetoelastic Pressductor technology and is equipped with fixed cable and IP66 protection, specially designed for high humidity and high temperature dryer sections of paper machines. It measures horizontal web tension and transmits raw sensor signals to ABB PFSK series signal processing boards for closed-loop tension regulation. Featuring high overload tolerance, outstanding long-term stability and strong vibration resistance, this tension sensor delivers precise force measurement for paper, coating and thin web processing lines.

Content Details

ABB PFTL101BE 2.0KN 3BSE004214R1 is a heavy-duty mill version pillow block tension transducer used for horizontal tension measurement. With 2kN rated load range, it utilizes magnetoelastic measurement principle. Mechanical tension changes the magnetic permeability inside the sensing element and outputs low-drift mV/V analog signals. Different from conventional strain gauge sensors, this design effectively reduces fatigue drift and maintains high linearity and repeatability during long continuous production cycles. This BE variant comes with factory fixed connection cable and IP66 dustproof and waterproof rating, well suited for harsh environments such as paper machine dryer sections with high temperature and moisture. It supports up to 500% overload capacity and can withstand sudden tension spikes caused by web break or line speed fluctuation without permanent damage. It is mounted under idle roller bearing housings and only measures horizontal force, eliminating interference from roller dead weight and improving measuring accuracy under heavy roll conditions. It sends raw tension signals to ABB PFSK signal conditioning boards, forming a complete tension control system to adjust roller speed dynamically, stabilizing web tension during acceleration and deceleration and avoiding web breakage, wrinkling or stretching.

The sensor housing is machined from a single solid steel block, providing excellent mechanical rigidity and shock resistance. It can resist strong vibration and electromagnetic interference generated by motors and drives in production workshops. The fixed cable design simplifies on-site wiring and reduces loose connection faults. After installation, frequent recalibration is not required, lowering routine maintenance workload. This tension load cell can be matched with ABB PFSK series boards and integrated into ABB Advant DCS tension control systems. Before shipment, each ABB PFTL101BE 2.0KN unit undergoes force calibration, signal test and aging inspection to verify linearity and repeatability, ensuring reliable 24-hour continuous operation for paper mills, coating machines and light film web production lines.
