Main Functions

1. Supply excitation and acquire measuring signal from dual tension load‑cells.
2. Calculate tension value of individual channel, sum(A+B) and difference(A‑B).
3. Configurable digital filtering for suppressing mechanical vibration and noise interference.
4. Analog output 4‑20 mA / 0‑10 V for PLC / drive closed‑loop tension control.
5. Local LCD display for tension value reading, parameter setting and status diagnosis.
6. RS‑485 Modbus RTU for remote reading of tension value, alarm and parameter configuration.
7. Channel self‑diagnosis: detect sensor break, overload, report alarm status.
8. LED status indication:
   • Green LED：Power supply normal, unit healthy
   • Yellow LED：Measuring signal / communication active
   • Red LED：Over‑load / sensor fault / unit hardware fault

Installation & Wiring Requirements

1. Cut off power supply before wiring or replacement. Mount PFEA111‑20 firmly on DIN‑rail inside cabinet. Hot‑swap is forbidden.
2. Connect load‑cell sensor cable, power cable, analog output and communication cable strictly per wiring drawing; separate sensor weak‑signal cables from high‑power cables to reduce electromagnetic interference.
3. Complete grounding according to ABB tension‑system specification.
4. After installation, perform load‑cell calibration, set filter parameters and range; verify measuring output and communication function before commissioning.
5. Replacement note: parameter download and recalibration are required after unit replacement.
