Product Overview
The PFCL201C-10kN 3BSE027070R10 is an ABB Pressductor PillowBlock load cell designed for vertical force measurement in strip-processing and tension-control systems. ABB documentation identifies the 10 kN version as ordering number 3BSE027070R10 within the PFCL 201C family. It is intended for applications where the vertical force component generated by a moving strip must be measured accurately for tension regulation and process monitoring. Typical installations include annealing, pickling, galvanizing, and other continuous processing lines. The sensor body is manufactured from stainless steel and is designed to withstand industrial mechanical loading, shock, and demanding process environments. ABB also specifies the PFCL 201C version with a Cannon connector for the connection cable.

Key Features and Benefits — PFCL201C-10kN
- 10 kN nominal force capacity for vertical strip-tension measurement.
- Pressductor technology developed for industrial tension-measurement applications.
- Stainless-steel construction for demanding process environments.
- Suitable for continuous strip-processing lines.
- High mechanical overload capability helps protect measurement performance during abnormal loading.
- Compact pillow-block configuration integrates beneath compatible bearing housings.
- Cannon connector simplifies connection to the associated measuring electronics.
- Commonly paired with ABB tension-measurement electronics such as PFEA-series systems.
One important point during procurement: the PFCL 201 family is available in several load ratings, including 5, 10, 20, and 50 kN. The replacement must therefore match the original nominal load and mechanical configuration rather than only the physical dimensions.

Installation and Maintenance — PFCL201C-10kN
Installation should follow the mechanical arrangement specified for the applicable strip-tension system. The load cell must be correctly positioned beneath the bearing housing so that the intended vertical force is transferred through the measuring direction.
During maintenance, inspect mounting surfaces, fasteners, cable routing, and connector condition. ABB recommends checking mounting screws and ensuring that the gaps around the load cell remain free from dirt that could create a shunt force and distort the measurement. The cable should also be inspected for mechanical damage.
Before commissioning, verify the zero signal and calibration of the complete tension-measurement chain. Personally, I would also compare the measured output against the original sensor before removing it whenever plant conditions permit; that gives the maintenance team a useful reference for post-replacement validation.
Product Warranty — PFCL201C-10kN
Warranty conditions depend on the supplier and the condition of the supplied load cell. Confirm whether the item is new, unused surplus, refurbished, or previously installed, and request inspection or functional-test documentation when available.
For critical process-line spares, record the complete ABB ordering number, nominal load rating, serial number where applicable, supplier documentation, inspection status, and storage history. This helps prevent substitution of an incorrectly rated load cell during future maintenance.
