>>C 203 Series
The C 203 Series Force Measuring Sensors are designed as live shaft sensors to allow easy roller change in continuous material processing applications. They can be easily mounted to the machine side frame with the included mounting screws or to the top frame utilizing an optional mounting bracket. The red point on the connector indicates the positive measuring direction. The C 203 Force Measuring Sensor ensures that even with low material wrap angles and high roller weights, tension will still be measured accurately.
>>Functional Description
Foil type strain gauges mounted in a full Wheatstone Bridge configuration in each sensor perform the actual tension measurement. The dual flexion beam design eliminates angular deflection under load and ensures tension measurement with the highest accuracy and reliability under the most stringent requirements. A built in mechanical hard-stop provides high overload protection and ensures that frequent calibration is not required.
