Description

Applications

  • Equipment manufacturing
  • Construction of jigs and fixtures
  • Special machine building
  • Measuring and control systems

Hydraulic force transducers operate on the principle that the force acting on the piston is converted into a hydraulic pressure in proportion to the piston surface area.

The measured value is output via the connected measuring instrument. It can be either analogue or digital. The scale of the connected pressure gauge can be defined in various units: N, kN, kg, or t.

Leak-tightness warranty

The warranty on leak tightness of the hydraulic force measuring unit was extended to 5 years2). A force transducer that starts to leak within this period will be repaired free of charge.

1) For rated forces below 500 N, the relative linearity error is ±1.6 % Fnom for all connected measuring instruments.
2) Use of the force measuring unit as intended is a prerequisite for the extended 5-year warranty.
