PMGZ – Hermetically sealed measuring block for the paper industry

PMGZ
Features
  • IP 67, inert gas filled, resistant against moisture and increased temperature
  • Overload capacity at 10-times nominal force, stainless steel construction
  • 2 year FMS warranty
  • Nominal forces from 1 to 80 kN (250 to 18000 lbf.)

The force sensors of the PMGZ-Series, designed for the measurement of strip tension on continuous paper processing lines, are used in combination with standard pillow blocks. This feature allows for easy maintenance or exchange of the blocks, bearings and roll. Block mounting is simple utilizing four fasteners into the bottom surface and mounting holes for the pillow block bearing are included based on your specifications. In addition, the 6 m cable allows for an electrical connection away from the harsh environment. The PMGZ-Series is available in two measuring, horizontal and vertical, and thus can be specified for use in any mounting orientation and strip wrap configuration. With the superior performance of the PMGZ-Series, accurate tension readings are obtained even with low web wrap angles and high roll weights.
