Tension/Compression force transducer with strain gauges
Description
The model F2226 tension/compression force transducer with strain gauges is suitable for both static and dynamic force measurement in the direct force flow.
The force introduction is carried out via threaded bolts at both ends of the instrument. The force is thus transmitted centrally and evenly into the instrument. This enables precise measurement of the actual tension or compression forces in a wide variety of applications, for example to determine the actual tension forces in wire ropes or rod systems.
The measuring spring is elastically deformed by a tension or compression force introduced in the force direction. The resulting mechanical tensions are measured by the strain gauges, converted into an electrical output signal and output as an mV/V signal.
Special features
- Rated forces from 0 ... 2,500 lb to 0 ... 750,000 lb [0 ... 11.12 kN to 0 ... 3,336 kN]
- For static and dynamic measurement
- Force introduction via threaded bolts
- Tension/Compression calibration
- Robust design, easy integration
