3BSE004191R1 PFTL101B load cell

3BSE004191R1 is an ABB PFTL101B pillowblock load cell for documented horizontal-force measurement.

System role

Rebuilt from individual evidence

Measurement path

ABB documentation identifies 3BSE004191R1 as a PFTL 101B 5.0 kN pillowblock load cell.

The load cell sits in the web-tension measurement path between bearing force and a tension controller.

Unknown: the installed calibration, mounting, cable routing, signal scaling and physical condition.

System role

This section explains what the product does and where it acts in the surrounding system.

Function
Measures horizontal force for a web-tension control loop.
System position
Sits between the bearing load path and the tension controller input.
Upstream / inputs
Mechanical web force reaches the pillowblock load cell through its mounted bearing path.
Downstream / outputs
The load cell sends a measurement signal toward the tension controller.
Limitations
Unknown: the installed calibration, mounting, cable routing, signal scaling and physical condition.

Evidence ledger

Facts, inferences, and unknowns are kept separate.

Facts

  • ABB documentation identifies 3BSE004191R1 as a PFTL 101B 5.0 kN pillowblock load cell.

    Confidence: high

  • The PFTL101 family is documented for horizontal force measurement in web-tension equipment.

    Confidence: high

Inferences

  • The load cell sits in the web-tension measurement path between bearing force and a tension controller.

    Confidence: medium

    Rationale: The documented pillowblock load-cell construction and horizontal-force application support this measurement position.

Unknowns

  • Unknown: the installed calibration, mounting, cable routing, signal scaling and physical condition.

    Confidence: low

    Missing evidence: The technical manual identifies the load-cell family but not a particular mounting, calibration or unit condition.

System position diagram

The Bearing load path connects through 3BSE004191R1 PFTL101B load cell to the Tension controller.

Reading limit: system position only, not a wiring or safety drawing.

The documented component path connects the upstream source with the downstream system boundary.
