Dytran unveils 1210C series of force sensors

A Dytran Instruments product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jul 17, 2009

Dytran Instruments has introduced a series of ring-style charge output force sensors.

The 1210C series can be preloaded and used as force links for both tension and compression measurements.

These sensors resemble washers as they are in the form of thin rings with through holes.

They are designed to measure rapid- or slow-changing dynamic forces in machines and in other applications where a through stud or bolt holds the sensor in place in a preloaded condition.

The 1210C series can measure vibratory compressive forces over a wide frequency range and pulsing forces from punch and forming presses and other repetitive force applications, as well as impact forces.

The series is available in seven ranges, from 5,000LbF to 100,000LbF.

Their nominal sensitivity is -18pC/LbF and they each feature a through-hole mount, a 10-32 axial connector, a hermetic seal and a stainless-steel construction.

The outer diameter ranges from 0.65in (1.65cm) to 2.95in and their inner diameter ranges from 0.26in to 1.61in.

Their low-profile and through-hole design allows for minimal intrusion during machinery modifications, which reduces machinery downtime.

Potential applications for the 1210C series include press monitoring, process control, force link, balancing and machinery studies.
