Santwell Tension Sensor

The ZL tension sensor is a highly capable device engineered for accurate tension measurement across diverse industrial uses. It features a broad rated load spectrum spanning from 10kN to 200kN, rendering it appropriate for a wide variety of tension-measuring circumstances.

In terms of accuracy and stability, this sensor delivers a comprehensive precision of 0.3%F.S and a creep of ±0.05%F.S/30min. These characteristics guarantee that the sensor furnishes accurate and stable measurements over a prolonged period, which is vital for upholding the dependability of the measurement system.

The sensor's sensitivity lies within the range of 1.0 to 1.5mV/V, and the zero output is +1%F.S. These parameters are indispensable for ensuring that the sensor can detect even the slightest alterations in tension, making it highly sensitive and trustworthy.

Regarding temperature performance, the temperature impact on zero is ±0.05%F.S/10°C, and the temperature impact on output is +0.05%FS/10°C. The operating temperature range of the sensor is from -20°C to +65°C. This extensive temperature range and the low temperature influence on measurements make the sensor suitable for utilization in harsh environments where temperature fluctuations are frequent.

Electrical specifications of the ZL tension sensor encompass an input resistance of 750±50Ω, an output resistance of 700±5Ω, and an insulation resistance of >5000MΩ. The bridge voltage required for the sensor is 10V DC. These electrical specifications ensure that the sensor can be effortlessly integrated into existing measurement systems and provide reliable electrical signals.

The safe load limit of the ZL tension sensor is 150%F.S. This high overload capacity ensures that the sensor can endure unexpected increases in tension without being damaged, offering an additional layer of protection for the measurement system.

Constructed from alloy steel or stainless steel, the ZL tension sensor provides excellent durability and resistance to corrosion. Moreover, it has an IP67 protection class, signifying that it is safeguarded against dust and water jets. This makes the sensor suitable for use in harsh industrial environments where it might be exposed to dust, water, and other contaminants.

The load cell connection mode for the ZL tension sensor is as follows: Input+: Red, Input-: Black, Output+: Green, Output-: White. This clear and straightforward connection mode ensures that the sensor can be readily installed and connected to the measurement system, minimizing the risk of installation errors and ensuring that the sensor functions correctly.
