Tension Electronics PFEA111/112/122, User Manual Section 1.8 Safety Instructions 1.8 Safety Instructions Read and follow the safety instructions given in this section before starting any work. However, local statutory regulations, if stricter, are to take precedence. The tension measurement system contains no moving parts. However, the load cells are mounted close to a rotating roll over which a web is running.
All of these factors impact on the design, operation, and maintenance of the web processing machinery. ® ABB’s Pressductor transducer technology produces a signal as a result of changes in an electromagnetic field when the load cell is subjected to mechanical force. It is an operating principle that has its origin in a metallurgical phenomenon according to which mechanical forces alter the ability of some steels to convey a magnetic field.
