**ABB PFTL 101A-2.0kN Force Transducer Introduction**
**1. Product Overview**
The **ABB PFTL 101A-2.0kN** is a high-precision **force transducer** from ABB's **PFTL series**, designed for industrial automation, testing and measurement applications. It provides accurate measurement of **both tension and compression forces**, with a maximum capacity of **2.0kN (approximately 204kgf)**.
**2. Key Specifications**
- **Model**: PFTL 101A-2.0kN
- **Measuring range**: 0~2.0kN (tension and compression)
- **Output signals**:
- Analog outputs (e.g., ±10V, 4~20mA)
- Digital outputs (optional, e.g., RS485, CAN bus)
- **Accuracy**: ±0.1% FS (full scale)
- **Overload capacity**: Typically 150% FS (higher for short-term)
- **Operating temperature**: -10°C to +70°C (industrial grade)
- **Protection rating**: IP65 (dustproof and water-resistant)
- **Mechanical interface**:
- Threaded holes at both ends (e.g., M8/M10) for easy installation
**3. Core Features**
a. **High-Precision Measurement**
- Utilizes stable strain gauge technology with excellent long-term stability and low temperature drift.
b. **Robust Construction**
- Made of stainless steel or alloy steel, offering impact resistance and corrosion protection for harsh industrial environments.
c. **Multiple Output Options**
- Supports both analog (voltage/current) and digital communication, compatible with PLCs and data acquisition systems.
d. **Flexible Installation**
- Compact design allows integration into test benches, robotic arms, tension control systems, etc.
**4. Typical Applications**
- **Industrial Automation**: Robotic gripping force control, assembly line pressure detection.
- **Testing & Quality Control**: Material strength testing, product durability testing.
- **Process Control**: Tension control (e.g., cables, textiles, packaging machinery).
- **R&D Laboratories**: Mechanical research, dynamic force monitoring.
**5. Supporting Equipment**
- **Signal conditioners** (e.g., ABB matching amplifier modules).
- **Data acquisition systems** (e.g., PLCs, DAQ modules).
- **Calibration equipment** (regular calibration required to maintain accuracy).
**6. Important Notes**
- Avoid overloading to prevent sensor damage.
- Ensure force direction aligns with the sensor's axis during installation to avoid side loads.
- Perform regular calibration (recommended annually or based on usage frequency).
