ABB 3BSE018741R130 Tension sensor

This advanced tension electronics can supply up to four load cells and has six configurable analog out-puts for control and/or monitoring of web tension. The output signals are also available on Profibus-DP. Another useful feature is the possibility to, via the digital input or Profibus, switch the gain for two different web paths. Alternatively, the digital input could be used for remote gain scheduling or zero set. This unit also includes a self-diagnostic function and four configurable digital outputs for alarms and level detection. Status of self-diagnostic functions are also available on Profibus-DP. The high level of functionality and user-friendliness make the PFEA 113 one of the most complete tension electronics on the market.

Interactive menu

 The tension electronics has a unique interactive menu which guides the commissioning step by step, eliminating the potential for making mistakes and significantly reducing startup time – a very helpful tool. Built-in self diagnostics The electronics continuously supervise a number of important parameters and provides error messages if something goes wrong. Multi-language display The multi-language display is a great feature that helps to eliminate mistakes, during start-up and/or operation of the tension system.

Commissioning without calibration weights

 All Pressductor load cells are standard calibrated to the same sensitivity before delivery from ABB factory. This means that the fastest and most accurate way to commission a tension system is to use a calculated value instead of using calibration weights. Mounting To provide flexibility of mounting, all three versions of the Tension Electronics are available in two mounting alternatives. For mounting on a standard DIN-rail the IP 20 and for wall mounting the IP 65.Analog outputs Individual scaling and filtering of all analog outputs. Fieldbus communication Versions PFEA 112 and PFEA 113 have Fieldbus communication via Profibus-DP as standard. In contradiction to many other tension systems the PFEA 112 and PFEA 113 provide a scaled and zeroed tension output ready for use in control or monitoring.
