ABB MEASUREMENT & ANALYTICS Web Tension Systems with Tension Electronics PFEA113

Application Fields and Typical Scenarios

1. Main application industries

Paper making and printing: Control the tension of paper during rewinding and coating processes to ensure uniform roll shape and avoid wrinkles.

Plastic film: Maintain stable film tension and ensure thickness consistency in blown and cast production lines.

Textile industry: tension control during yarn winding and weaving processes to improve fabric quality.

Metal processing: tension adjustment during strip rolling and slitting to prevent material stretching and deformation.

2. Application of segmented rollers

Through the collaborative work of multiple PFEA113, it supports the measurement of segmented roller tension with up to 12 load sensors, suitable for wide width material slitting machines and rewinding machines. The segmented roller ratio factor (SRSF) is used to compensate for roller segments without sensors, achieving accurate estimation of the tension of the entire material.

Safety and Compliance

1. Safety Warning

Personnel safety: Cut off the power supply of the equipment and lock it before operation to avoid contact with the load sensor during production line operation.

Equipment safety: To prevent static electricity from damaging electronic modules, power off before replacing components and use anti-static wristbands.

2. Compliance certification

CE and UK certification: Compliant with RoHS 2011/65/EU+AD 2015/863/EU, EMC 2014/30/EU, Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU, and relevant electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility regulations in the UK.

North American certification: Complies with UL 61010C-1 and CSA C22.2 No. 1010-1 standards, certificate numbers 170304-E240621 and 240504-E240621.
