Product Introduction:
1. Basic Identity
This tension sensor carries part number 47020061001 and is specified for use on XCMG machinery. It is a force-sensing device that monitors tension in drive systems such as belts or chains .
2. Installation Position
The sensor mounts between the machine frame and the tensioned component. It is bolted at points along the tension path where the belt or chain passes over the sensing element. In most cases, it sits on idler rolls or tensioning stations. Correct alignment at installation is critical for accurate readings.
3. Function
It detects mechanical deflection caused by tension force. Inside, the sensing element produces an electrical output that changes with the load applied. The signal goes to a controller or display, showing real-time tension data . This lets the operator see if tension is within range and make adjustments as needed.
4. Maintenance
Routine care for this type of sensor is straightforward. Keep the unit clean by wiping off dust and grime with a damp cloth. Check calibration at regular intervals, especially after initial installation or after major temperature changes. Inspect cable connections for corrosion or looseness during scheduled equipment checks . The housing protects against normal working conditions, but avoid dropping or striking the unit.
5. Service Notes
When replacing the sensor, recalibration using a reference weight is required. If the sensor cable is damaged, replace it with the correct type and length
