Precision Compression Force Sensor - 0-450 kN

Overview

High-capacity, high-performance compression sensor

The compression sensor model 1331 offers a static accuracy of +/-0.07% or better in a compact design. The 1331 has a high output signal of 4 mV/V and its design compensates for eccentric loads to ensure maximum precision during measurements. The model 1331 is available in a 0-450 kN capacity. Overload protection is 150%.

The operating temperature range is -55 to 90°C. Temperature compensation is applied between -10 and 45°C.

Installation

• Bridge supply: 1-20 VDC

• Mounting 2: Compression only. The load is applied to the measurement surface. Sensor installation with base plate when the installation surface has imperfections (see accessories). Screw types, tightening torques here

• Mounting 4: Compression only. The load is applied to the measurement surface. Sensor installation directly on the surface. Screw types, tightening torques here

Conditioning and acquisition

The output signal of the 1331 is unamplified. It is possible to obtain a complete measurement chain, wired and configured specifically for the application, by integrating, for example:

Display 9840	GSV-2TSDI	GSV-3USB	PMI-520AJ
Precision digital display for reference sensor	24-bit display with acquisition function	USB acquisition module	Precision analog conditioner with voltage or current output

Applications

• Test benches in aeronautics and automotive
