This highly sensitive transducer is suitable for measuring quasistatic and
dynamic tensile and compressive forces ranging from a few mN to 500 N. The special advantages of this transducer lie in
its very high sensitivity, high frequency and small dimensions. Especially when measuring very small quasistatic forces it
is necessary to ensure that the transducer is not exposed to temperature changes during the measurement.
The force to be measured is introduced into the quartz
element fitted in the transducer via the cylindrical force introduction part. The element is preloaded to enable both tensile
and compressive forces to be measured. The quartz measuring element generates an electrical charge proportional to the force
which is led to the connecting plug.
