Lightest seat belt tension force
loadcell around
The F305 is a high performance loadcell for measuring seat belt tension forces, and with a mass (without cable) of 50g it is the lightest loadcell of its kind on the market.
The F305 is a high performance loadcell for measuring seat belt tension forces Its geometry was created by computer program to generate an optimal design with minimal mass, material usage, stress and deflection
The knurled beams can easily be removed by hand allowing fitting to a seat belt while it is anchored at both ends.
With a mass (without cable) of 50g this is the lightest loadcell of its kind on the market.
The range of this all titanium unit is to 16kN or 1.6tonne.
It is available for belt widths of 50mm and 75mm.
Performance figures have been authenticated by MIRA to typically 2%, these can of course vary with belt type.
Novatech Measurements can carry out a five point calibration using a two metre sample of customer supplied belt to reduce application errors.
The design can be readily modified to customer's specific requirements.
