Description
The
PFTL101B 2.0KN is a
high-precision pressure sensor designed by
ABB for industrial automation, delivering reliable force measurement in dynamic environments. Engineered for applications requiring 0–2,000 N (2.0 kN) force monitoring, this sensor combines rugged durability with advanced signal processing, making it ideal for hydraulic systems, machinery, and process control in manufacturing, energy, and automotive industries.
The PFTL101B 2.0KN converts mechanical force into analog signals (4–20 mA/0–10 V), enabling real-time monitoring of presses, robotic arms, and conveyor systems. Its IP67-rated stainless steel housing resists dust, moisture, and vibrations, while ±0.1% full-scale accuracy ensures precise detection of force fluctuations. The sensor integrates seamlessly with ABB’s PLC platforms (e.g., AC500, AC800M) and third-party systems via M12 connectors, simplifying retrofitting and commissioning.

PFTL101B 2.0KN
- Precision Performance: ±0.1% accuracy minimizes errors in critical processes, such as automotive component assembly, where force deviations <5 N can impact quality.
- Durability: IP67 rating and 316L stainless steel construction withstand 10 million load cycles, outlasting generic sensors by 50% in harsh environments.
- Flexible Integration: Programmable output signals (4–20 mA/0–10 V) and ABB’s Sensor Validation Tool reduce calibration time by 40%.
- Manufacturing: Monitors robotic welding force in automotive plants to ensure consistent weld quality.
- Energy: Controls hydraulic cylinder force in wind turbine maintenance systems.
- Aerospace: Validates force applied during aircraft component testing.
Case Study: A German automotive manufacturer deployed PFTL101B 2.0KN sensors on 50 robotic arms, reducing defective welds by 25% and saving €120,000 annually in rework costs.
- Accuracy: ±0.1% FS vs. ±0.2–0.3% in comparable sensors, enabling tighter process control.
- Temperature Range: Operates at -40°C to +85°C vs. -20°C to +70°C for 竞品，suitable for Arctic and tropical climates.
- Mounting Flexibility: Threaded M12 connection vs. flange-only designs, reducing installation time by 30%.
PFTL101B 2.0KN
- Range Matching: Choose 2.0KN for applications under 2,000 N; opt for 5.0KN (PFTL101B 5.0KN) for heavier loads.
- Environment: Pair with ABB’s PFTL101B-EX for explosion-proof zones (ATEX/IECEx certified).
- Cost Efficiency: Offers a 20% lower total cost of ownership than premium brands due to longer lifespan and 免维护 design.
- Mounting: Torque sensor threads to 15–20 N·m to prevent loosening; avoid lateral forces exceeding 500 N.
- Calibration: Recalibrate every 2 years or after 1 million cycles using ABB’s Sensor Assistant Tool.
- EMI Protection: Use shielded cables (e.g., PUR jacket) for signal wires to minimize interference.
