Ultra-miniaturised force sensors
The new Kistler Type 9215 piezoelectric force sensor for tensile and compression forces ranging down to a few millinewtons is exceptionally compact
The sensors cover measuring ranges from 5kN to 120kN and are supplied as standard with 1%, 10% and 100% measuring range calibrations.
In most applications, the sensors may be fitted directly into presses, punches and rams but, where this is not possible, a variety of flanges and adapters are available.
Where high precision coaxial installation is required, such as in presses, a double-sided centering seat is available.
Three of the sensors have a longitudinal, central bore for use with ejector tools and the standard accessories kit includes a steel screw-on cap, to protect the radial cable outlet, mounting adapters and threaded bushes.
SCS calibration and additional measuring range calibration are available as options.
The new Kistler force sensors provide precision process monitoring that is easy to install, robust and virtually maintenance free throughout a long working life.
