A Tension Sensor measures the tension or pulling force on an object and converts it into an electrical signal for monitoring and control. These sensors commonly employ strain gauges, resistance strain gauges, or piezoelectric crystals to generate electrical signals corresponding to tension changes.
GAD200 Tension Sensor
The GAD200 tension sensor is designed for environments containing explosive gas mixtures, such as methane and coal dust, making it suitable for underground coal mines. It is an integral component of our company's belt protection system, ensuring the smooth operation of conveyor belts. Additionally, it can be utilized in non-explosive, above-ground environments.
Technical Parameters
- Working Voltage: DC 12V to 24V;
- Working Current: ≤50mA;
- Signal Output: DC 4~20mA;
- Selectable Range: 5T to 20T, adjustable based on user requirements.
