Advantages and Characteristics

• High accuracy: The Pressductor® technology ensures high – power, low – impedance AC signals that are very resistant to electrical interference and earth faults, providing accurate measurement results4.
• Excellent overload capacity: It can withstand overloads in both the measurement direction and the transverse direction, with overload capacity up to 3 times the nominal load in some cases, which helps to protect the device from damage due to sudden high – force impacts4.
• Wide operating range: It can operate effectively even when rolls are heavy and tension is light, covering a wide range of tension levels, which makes it suitable for various web processing applications4.

Application Areas and Application Cases

• Application areas: This product is mainly used in the web processing industries, such as paper mills, printing plants, and textile mills, where accurate web tension measurement is crucial for ensuring product quality and process stability.
• Application case: In a paper mill, the ABB PFTL301E – 0.5KN is installed on the paper – making machine to measure the tension of the paper web. By accurately controlling the web tension, the paper mill can reduce paper breakage and improve the uniformity of the paper thickness, resulting in a higher – quality product and increased production efficiency.

Selection Suggestions

• Compatibility: Consider the compatibility with your existing equipment and measurement systems. Make sure that the output signals of the PFTL301E – 0.5KN can be properly received and processed by your control devices.
• Installation environment: Take into account the installation space and environmental conditions. This load cell is suitable for horizontal installation in web processing equipment, but it should be protected from excessive vibration, moisture, and dust to ensure its normal operation.
• Budget: While the ABB PFTL301E – 0.5KN offers high – quality performance, it’s important to consider your budget constraints. Evaluate whether the product’s features and performance justify the cost within your project’s financial plan.

Precautions

• Installation: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for proper installation. Ensure that the load cell is securely mounted and that the adapter plates are properly attached to the equipment. Avoid applying excessive force during installation to prevent damage to the device.
• Electrical safety: When connecting the load cell to the power supply and other electrical devices, make sure to follow the relevant electrical safety standards. Check the grounding connection to prevent electrical shocks and interference.
• Maintenance: Regularly inspect the load cell for any signs of damage or wear. Clean the surface of the device to remove dust and debris. If any problems are detected, contact the manufacturer or a professional for repair and maintenance.
