The strain of the basic material acts via the
two contact surfaces on the sensor as a change in distance. The sensor enclosure serves as an elastic transmission element
and converts the change in distance into a force. The piezoelectric elements subjected to shear strain produce an electric
charge Q (pC) proportional to this force.
The sensor design allows it to be used in industrial environments. With
its connected cable, the measuring chain satisfies the requirements of protective class IP65. The top part of the "HighSens"
enclosure is made of stainless steel. A 10-32 UNF neg. is the integrated connector. This allows the use of a broad selection
of connecting cables.
• Very high sensitivity
• Extremely low acceleration sensitivity and thus also suitable for measurements on moving parts
• Measuring range for tensile and compression forces
• Proof against overload
• Degree of protection IP 54 (IP 65 with special cable connected)
