ABBPFTL101A 2.0KN 3BSE004172R1 is a compact cantilever-style strain gauge load cell manufactured for industrial continuous web processing equipment. Built with high-reliability alloy steel elastic body and precision foil strain gauge inner structure, the sensor accurately captures lateral pulling tension from running paper, plastic film, non-ferrous metal strips.
The load cell outputs millivolt signal proportional to applied load, which needs to connect with ABB PFEA111/PFEA112/PFEA113 tension amplifier to convert into standard 0-10V or 4-20mA industry signal for automatic control system collection. Optimized sealed casing structure achieves good dustproof and moisture-proof property to adapt humid, dusty production workshop environment of papermaking and chemical film factories. Standard installation hole layout enables quick mounting on roller bearing housing of unwinder, winder and intermediate roller frame. As classic discontinued original spare for legacy ABB tension control system, PFTL101A 2.0KN is a preferred replacement part for on-site damaged load cell without modifying existing mechanical mounting structure.
