ABB PFRL101A radial load cell

Structural characteristics
Radial measurement design: This element is specially designed to measure pressure in the radial direction, and its structure is usually axisymmetric design, which can uniformly feel the radial pressure from the surrounding area and convert it into a measurable physical quantity.
Compact and rugged: To adapt to different installation environments, the PFRL101A typically has a compact form factor and is manufactured with robust materials to ensure stable performance under rated loads and various operating conditions, with high reliability and durability.
Working principle
PFRL101A generally operates based on piezoresistive or strain effects. When subjected to radial pressure, the sensitive material inside the element will undergo physical changes, such as a change in resistance value or a small strain. Through the connected measurement circuit, this physical change is converted into an electrical signal output, the size of the electrical signal is proportional to the radial pressure, so as to achieve the measurement of radial pressure.

Performance characteristics
Accurate measurement: under the rated load of 0.5KN, it can provide high-precision measurement results, and the measurement error is usually controlled within a small range, which can provide accurate data support for the operation and process control of related equipment.
Good linearity: there is a good linear relationship between the output signal and the radial pressure, which makes the measurement results easy to understand and process, convenient for users to accurately judge the actual pressure according to the measured value, and make corresponding adjustment and control.
Rapid response: Rapid response to changes in radial pressure, timely capture of dynamic changes in pressure information, help real-time monitoring of pressure fluctuations in the system, to ensure the safe operation of equipment and process stability.

Application field
Industrial pipeline system: It is often used to measure the radial pressure of the fluid on the pipe wall in the industrial pipeline, to help monitor the pressure state in the pipeline, to prevent the pipeline from leaking, cracking and other safety accidents due to excessive pressure or abnormal fluctuations, and to provide an important data basis for the optimal design and operation management of the pipeline system.
Mechanical bearing monitoring: In the operation process of mechanical bearings, PFRL101A can be installed to monitor the radial pressure of bearings, timely detection of abnormal wear, overload and other problems of bearings, so as to carry out maintenance and maintenance in advance, extend the service life of bearings, and ensure the normal operation of mechanical equipment.
Hydraulic system: In the hydraulic system, it is used to measure the radial pressure of hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic pipe and other components, which helps to accurately control the working pressure of the hydraulic system, improve the working efficiency and reliability of the system, and also provides important reference information for the fault diagnosis of the hydraulic system.
