UMGZ-series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The UMGZ-Series force sensors are designed for measuring material tension in continuous processing lines. They are robust, durable, and feature overload protection up to ten times the nominal force. Constructed from stainless steel, these sensors are suitable for a wide range of applications with nominal forces ranging from 0.25 to 100 kN.
Specifications: The UMGZ-Series offers a wide measuring range with a 30:1 ratio and an accuracy class of ±0.5%. The sensors are available in horizontal and vertical versions, allowing for flexible mounting orientations. They incorporate dual bending beams and strain gauges in a full bridge circuit to provide precise tension readings.
Functional Description: The sensors integrate with standard pillow blocks, combining force sensor and bearing seat for easy maintenance. The design minimizes torque influences, and the electrical signal generated is proportional to the applied force, which is then amplified for tension monitoring or control.
Technical Data: Key technical specifications include a sensitivity of 1.8 mV/V, a temperature range of -10°C to +60°C, and an input resistance of 350 Ω. The sensors are protected against overloads up to ten times the nominal force and have a protection class of IP 42.
Options and Accessories: The UMGZ-Series offers various options such as temperature resistance up to 150°C, resistance against aggressive media, and configurations for vacuum applications. Accessories include different cable lengths and connector types.
Applications: These sensors are used in industries such as manufacturing, converting, metals, paper, textiles, and cable production. They are designed to maximize machine productivity through precise tension control.
Company Information: FMS Force Measuring Systems AG is a leader in web tension measurement and control, offering a complete range of technologies for force measurement and data processing. The company has been providing high-end solutions since 1993.

UMGZ-series-1

DATA SHEET FMS Tension Control / Force Sensors • Robust and durable Overload protection up to 10-times nominal force, measuring body from stainless steel • For a wide range of applications 8 sizes with nominal force from 0.25 to 100 kN (56 to 22‘500 lbf.) •Wide measuring range with highest resolution Measuring range 30:1 Accuracy class ±0.5% UMGZ-Series The force sensors of the UMGZ-Series, designed for the measurement of material tension on continous processing lines, are used in combination with standard pillow blocks. Block mounting is simple utilizing four fasteners into the bottom surface. force measuring blocks of the UMGZ-Series feature longevity, precision and reliability. The UMGZ-Series is available in two versions, horizontal and vertical, and thus can be specified for use in any mounting orientation and strip wrap configuration. With the superior performance of the UMGZ-Series, accurate tension readings are obtained even with low web wrap angles and high roll weights. Functional description Standard pillow blocks are installed on the force measuring blocks of the UMGZ-Series. This design combines force sensor and bearing seat and allows for easy maintenance or exchange of the blocks, bearings and roll. The UMGZ-Series is available in two measuring versions, horizontal and vertical, and thus can be specified for use in any mounting orientation and material wrap configuration. The UMGZ-Se-ries design, incorporating dual bending beams, eliminates the load-specific influences of torque. The movement of the bending beams is detected by a set of strain gages arranged in a full bridge circuit. The resulting electrical signal, which is proportional to the applied force, is then amplified for use in monitoring or controlling web tension. With the superior performance of the UMGZ-Series, accurate tension readings are obtained even with low web wrap angles and high roll weights.
