Various roller widths from 7 mm up to 30 mm according to the application are available. The roller width must correspond with the width of the material to be measured

Easy installation, even afterwards, on existing machines

2 Mounting possibilities: housing mounting or cylindrical hole mounting (mounting cut out: long hole R 19 mm, length 54 mm)

Easy calibration to customized material by operator – zero and gain calibration is required

Measuring principle – load cell with high quality strain gauge bridge

Tension sensor with mechanical overload protection

Standard Features


Tape rollers, ball-bearing mounted

Control lamp shows operative mode availability

Tension sensor FSB1-422 with aluminium housing

CAT 5 cables are used for data transfer

Required power supply +15…24 V DC (regulated)

Certificate of Compliance with the order 2.1 according EN 10204 is included

Optionally available: Inspection Certificate 3.1 according EN 10204 with calibration report

Special features of the RS-422 interface:

  • Up to 24 sensors with different tension ranges and designs may be connected in one line (data transfer max. 200 readings/sec.)
  • Connection to RS-232 using a converter (RS-422 – RS-232).
  • The RS-422 signal can be used for a single sensor over a distance of 1000 m.
  • Each sensor can individually be addressed and set up
  • Can be connected to PLC controls with digital input
  • Simple connection to BUS-Systems using gateways

* SCHMIDT calibration material depending on tension range and roller width
** Outside dimensions of front plate


Important for your order:
Please specify model and roller width! Small dual-flanged outer guide rollers are standard. All 3 rollers can be equipped with one flange, if the material to be measured is wider than the rollers. Please request when you order.


Calibration to customized material:

If process material differs significantly from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity or shape, special calibration using customer supplied samples is recommended. For this purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.
