Description
The ABB PFTL201C 20KN appears to be a high-capacity tensiometer designed for industrial automation applications requiring precise measurement of pulling forces up to 20kN (approximately 4499 lbf). Here’s a breakdown of its potential functionalities and what you can find about it:
Function:
- The primary function of this tensiometer is to measure tension within its 20kN capacity. It likely converts this tension into a measurable electrical signal for use by a control system in various industrial processes.
Applications:
Due to its high-force capacity, the ABB PFTL201C 20KN could be used in various industrial automation scenarios involving high tension control, such as:
- Wire and cable production: Monitoring and controlling tension during processes like wire drawing, spooling, or coiling.
- Material testing: Measuring the tensile strength of materials like ropes, cables, or metal sheets.
- Web tension control: Maintaining consistent tension in web materials like paper, textiles, or plastic films during processing or converting.
- Lifting and hoisting: Monitoring tension in lifting slings or cables for safety and load management.
