ABB PFTL101B 10KN 3BSE004197R1
The ABB PFTL101B 10KN 3BSE004197R1 is a high-precision Force Transmitter in the ABB IndustrialIT 800xA system family, designed specifically for force/weight measurement in industrial process control. This transmitter utilizes Strain Gauge technology, enabling accurate measurement of tension and compression forces within the range of 0-10 kN (kilonewtons). It converts these measurements into standard 4-20mA or HART signals, which are then used by DCS/PLC systems for real-time monitoring and control.
As a core component of ABB's force measurement solutions, the PFTL101B is suitable for critical application scenarios such as heavy industrial equipment, cranes, tension control systems, rolling mills, and material testing machines. Its key values lie in high precision (typically ±0.1% FS), strong long-term stability, excellent overload resistance, and adaptability to harsh industrial environments with vibrations and shocks.

Structure and Composition
The ABB PFTL101B features a fully sealed stainless steel structure, with core components including:
Strain Element:
Made of high-precision stainless steel (such as 17-4PH), it converts external forces into microstrains through its mechanical structure.
Strain Gauge:
Configured in a Wheatstone bridge, it is attached to key positions of the strain element to convert strain into resistance changes.
Signal Conditioning Circuit:
Including precision amplifiers, temperature compensation circuits, and ADC, ensuring signal stability and linearity.
HART Communication Module (optional):
Supports remote parameter configuration and diagnosis (requires 配合 with a HART communicator).
Protective Enclosure:
With IP66/IP67 protection, it is corrosion-resistant and oil-resistant, suitable for outdoor or harsh industrial environments.
Main Features and Advantages
High-Precision Measurement:
The ±0.1% FS high precision meets the demanding application requirements of rolling mill tension control and material testing.
Automatic temperature compensation (-40°C to +85°C) reduces the impact of ambient temperature.
Robust and Durable:
It has a 300% FS ultimate load and 150% FS safe overload capacity, resisting mechanical shocks and vibrations.
Made of stainless steel, it is corrosion-resistant and explosion-proof (optional Ex certification).
Flexible Integration:
Supports 4-20mA + HART, compatible with most DCS/PLC systems (such as ABB 800xA, Siemens PCS7).
Offers M12 connector or direct cable connection options, simplifying on-site installation.
Low-Maintenance Design:
IP66/IP67 protection allows for long-term maintenance-free operation.
HART diagnostic functions can predict the sensor's health status.
Application Fields
The PFTL101B is specifically designed for the following scenarios:
Iron and steel metallurgy: Rolling mill strip tension control, continuous caster mold pressure monitoring.
Lifting equipment: Hook load limitation, crane overload protection.
Petroleum and chemical industry: Pipeline stress monitoring, reactor mechanical seal force detection.
Testing equipment: Material testing machines, automotive parts fatigue testing.
Energy and power: Boiler hanger force analysis, wind turbine blade root stress monitoring.
Typical Application Cases:
In cold rolling mills, the PFTL101B monitors strip tension in real-time to ensure uniform thickness.
On offshore platform cranes, it prevents lifting overload accidents.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation Points:
Ensure the force direction is consistent with the sensor axis to avoid lateral forces.
Use a torque wrench to tighten the mounting bolts according to the manual (usually 20-30 Nm).
When making electrical connections, ground the shielding layer at one end (control cabinet side).
Maintenance Recommendations:
Perform zero calibration once a year (under no-load conditions).
Regularly check the tightness of cable joints (IP protection).
View the long-term stability curve through a HART communicator to predict service life.
