Tension Sensor SFD

Special Features


Tension sensor SFD without amplifier, output signal mV/V

Sensor for installation at an existing deflection pulley; the in- and outcoming angle has to be constant

Existing rollers with 20 – 180 degree wrap angles can be used as measurement points for the sensor

Directly, axial force transmission

M25 x 2.5 threaded housing with lock-nuts permits easy mounting and simple alignment at a deviating point

The progressively adjustable axial mounting depth using two mounting screws wrench size 32 enables an accurate positioning of the guide roller

10 times overload protection, max. 2000 N

Easy mounting of SCHMIDT rollers or customer provided rollers, send us your request!

IP 54 (dust tight and dripping water) protected

Special design to be used in explosive areas available on request

Standard Features


Required power supply + 10 V DC regulated

Rugged, stainless steel housing

Sensor with highly mechanical rigidity

Supplied with a 5 m shielded cable with open ends (optional lengths are available)

Optionally available: Inspection Certificate 3.1 according EN 10204 with calibration report (only available in combination with a display)

Mounting

Tension sensor SFD can be easily mounted everywhere a deviating point respectively a guide roller is built in at the machine. These places can be used as measuring point, assumed the in and outgoing angle is constant.

Calculating the Tension Range

Determining the tension range of 1-roller tension sensors

The tension range can be calculated for every wrapping angle with this formula :

Formular to determine the force of single roller tension senorsWhen selecting the nominal measurement force it is necessary to take into account the weight of the guide roll and raise the nominal load respectively, particularly when working with small nominal forces.
