Thin Film Force Sensor, 2.5kg-50kg

Thin film sensor with bearing is a tension sensor that offers excellent durability and high precision. SUCH thin film sensor offers optional load ranges from 2.5 kg to 50 kg, precise output sensitivity (1.0-2.0 mV/V) for efficient data acquisition and feedback, and a response frequency of up to 1 kHz for real-time monitoring of fast dynamic loads. If you require high-precision thin film tension measurement, thin film sensors is the ideal choice.

Note: The force sensor cannot be connected to both the transmitter and the controller at the same time — only one can be selected.

Feature

• The thin-film sensor is suitable for high-speed machinery and can measure accurately at low tensions.
• The small form factor and self-aligning ball bearing require less installation space and can be mounted in narrow places.
• Each thin-film sensor uses a Wheatstone full-bridge measurement circuit consisting of semiconductor strain gauges inside the sensor to detect web tension, ensuring high accuracy, reliability and stability of tension measurement.
• It can be flange-mounted to the side structure of the equipment with 4 bolts to support the detection and control of web tension for a wide range of web materials such as paper, wire, film, and strip.

Installation

Figure 1 Shows the Direction of Sensor Plugs

• Standard plug direction: 12-point direction
• Optional plug direction: 3/6/9

Figure 2 Shows the Installation Diagram

• T = material tension, F = force applied to the sensor.
• The standard combined force direction is inverse to the connector direction.
• That is, if the direction of the force is 6 o'clock, the 12 o'clock direction is the plug outlet.

Figure 3 Shows the Installation Diagram

1. Mount the 1203 spherical bearing on the shaft at the end of the roller, where one side of the bearing is mounted on the shaft to be fixed with an elastic gear ring, and the other side of the bearing is on the shaft.
2. There is some room for movement.
3. In the illustration, (B) is a sensor mounted with a fixed bearing, and (A) is a tension sensor with a floating bearing.

Caution

1. The weight of the tension roller must not exceed 50% of the full range of the sensor.
2. Roll length is less than 1500mm.
