ABB 3BSE028144R0020 PFEA113-20
Manufacturer: ABB
Part Number: 3BSE028144R0020
Model: PFEA113-20
Product Type: Tension Electronics Unit / Web Tension Measurement Controller
Product Family: ABB PFEA11x Web Tension Measurement System
1. Product Description
The ABB PFEA113-20 (3BSE028144R0020) is an electronic tension measurement and control module designed for industrial web tension applications. It processes signals from ABB Pressductor® load cells and provides accurate tension monitoring, signal conditioning, analog outputs, and fieldbus communication for integration with PLC/DCS systems.
It is commonly used in continuous production processes where material tension must be controlled precisely, such as paper, film, printing, converting, and metal processing lines.
