For those measurement applications with a high load (heavy tension) on the substrate and idler rolls in the web path, the UPBH or SUPB are often the tension sensing tools to use. Please note that our new F Series Transducers supersede the UPBH and SUPB style transducers providing the identical flat Under Pillow Block mounting in a design with enhanced features. The UPBH and SUPB transducers are still available for customers who prefer them.
These heavy duty transducers are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel and aluminum and are built to last. The design eliminates the use of a hinge making it more reliable and stronger than other Under Pillow Block transducers on the market.
UPBH transducers are used when the force direction is running predominantly parallel to the transducer's top plate.
SUPB transducers are used when force direction is running mostly perpendicular to the transducer's top plate.
If your application has a web speed over 1000 FPM, please fill out a Critical Speed Analysis form and fax it back to us.
UPB and SUPB Tension Transducer Capabilities
Install under any standard pillow block bearing
Low maintenance design - lifetime lubricated
Corrosion-resistant stainless steel and aluminum construction
Load ratings from 100 - 5000 lbs.(450 - 22250N)
Available in two frame sizes
Entire length of top plate is clear for pillow block installation only along center line
Use with live or dead shaft idlers
Parallelogram construction (UPBH)
