- Simple integration
- Compact design
- Maintainenance Free
The Force Measuring Bar KMS is a compact an rugged measuring device to determine traction- and compressive force. The KMS was designed for harsh conditions in the mining and other industrial sectors. The rugged design, easy integration and installation into existing belt conveyors combined with a maintenance free operation characterizes the KMS. The KMS is utilized e.g. for measuring the tensioning force at belt conveyors as well as in the area of load monitoring and overload protection in monorail trains and many other applications.
- Simple integration into plant- and process automation systems
- Compact design
- Applicable for extreme conditions, maintenance-free
- Various areas of application
- Convenient installation
Features
The Force Measuring Bar consits of a coupling rod with attached strain gauge and integrated transducer. The traction- and compression forces affecting the coupling rod are captured by the strain gauge. The integrated transducer converts the sensor signal into standard output signal. The output signal is either an opto-decoupled signal of 5 -15 Hz or a voltage and current signal available through the integrated EMSYS plug through which the device will also electrically supplied.
