  • Ship-lifting facilities

Special features of the tension link

  • Measurement ranges from 0 ... 5 kN [0 ... 1,124 lbf]
  • Fine-grained structural steel with high-quality surface protection or corrosion-resistant stainless steel version
  • High long-term stability, high shock and vibration resistance, excellent reproducibility
  • For dynamic and static measurements
  • Redundant output signal is possible

Description of the tension link

Tension links are designed for static and dynamic
measurement tasks in the direct flux of force. As a
load-bearing component in existing constructions, they determine the tension forces in a wide scope of applications.

Tension links of these models are often used in hoist and crane systems as torque support or rope fix point for load measurements. Further application areas are special machine constructions, e. g. in polymer processing machines.

Appropriate technical and regional approvals are available as an option.

The tension links of the model F73x1 are either made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant stainless steel 1.4542 or robust fine-grained steel with surface protection. Due to their properties, these materials are particularly suitable for the applications of tension links.

As output signals, the common active current and voltage outputs are available (4 … 20 mA, 0 … 10 V). Redundant output signals and CANopen® protocols are also possible.

These force transducers can be integrated into a certified WIKA overload protection with model ELMS1 (DIN EN ISO 13849-1 with PL d/cat. 3).
