PFEA111-20 3bse028140r20

ABB PFEA111-20 Tension Electronics Module (Ordering Code: 3BSE028140R20); Compact DIN-Rail Tension Controller with Dual Load Cell Inputs & Analog Outputs for Industrial Web Handling/Converting Lines (ABB Process Automation/Web Handling Systems).

The PFEA111-20 (3BSE028140R20) is a rugged, space-saving tension electronics module engineered for industrial web processing (films, paper, metal strips, laminates) and material handling to measure and control web tension in closed-loop systems. It features dual load cell inputs (A/B channels) for summation (A+B) or differential (A−B) processing, built-in digital filtering for signal stability, and configurable analog outputs (4–20 mA/0–10 V) for seamless integration with ABB web handling controllers, PLCs, or DCS. Key benefits include industrial-grade durability, IP20 protection (cabinet-mounted), DIN-rail mounting for easy panel integration, and a user-friendly keypad/display for setup and diagnostics. Typical applications include tension control in slitting, coating, printing, and metal processing lines where consistent tension is critical to product quality and process efficiency. Note: This is a tension electronics module (not a load cell or drive); pair it with compatible load cells (e.g., ABB PFTL series) and a master controller/drive to close the control loop. Always verify supply voltage range, input/output types, and mounting compatibility before ordering spares or upgrades.
