in the high measuring ranges.
Their small dimensions allow these load cells to be
used for measuring static and dynamic forces in
restricted spaces.
Force sensors of this type have a hermetically
sealed body, allowing it to be used even under
dirty and corrosive industrial conditions.
strain gauge full bridge which outputs a voltage
directly proportional to the measurement variable
on the application of a force.
The measurement force must be applied centri-
cally and without any transverse vectors.
Ensure that the sensor is mounted on a smooth
and even surface.

These sensors are used as measuring elements 3. Special features

This force sensor type is designed as a flat, circu- l Optional standardization of the rated
lar disc. The load application knob for receiving characteristic
compressive forces is an integral part of the
sensor.
