The ABB PFEA111-65 is a high-precision tension electronics unit engineered for demanding industrial web processing applications. This field-mountable unit processes signals from up to two ABB Pressductor® magneto-elastic load cells (PFCL or PFTL series) and provides real-time tension measurement and control for continuous materials such as paper, film, foil, textiles, and cable.
The -65 designation indicates the IP65 enclosure version — a rugged, wall-mounted housing that provides protection against dust and water jets . Unlike the IP20 DIN-rail variant (PFEA111-20), this version is specifically engineered for direct installation in harsh, dirty, or wet environments such as paper mills, metal processing lines, and outdoor installations.
This module is available with ordering number 3BSE050090R65 (the official designation for the IP65 variant, while 3BSE028140R65 corresponds to the IP20 version).
