Description
The miniature model F1818 compression force transducer is suitable for measuring static and dynamic compression forces to 5 kN.
The low overall height and small external diameter enable simple installation in machinery or test instruments and they can therefore be used in the widest variety of industrial areas. With this, it is also ideally suited for the measurement of compression forces in areas where installation space is critical.
Fields of application include test rigs for a variety of purposes, monitoring and control of manufacturing processes, in test facilities and laboratories.
