The sensor utilizes foil type strain gauges mounted in a full Wheatstone Bridge configuration to provide extremely accurate tension measurement. The dual flexion beam design and built-in mechanical hard-stop eliminates angular deflection while reducing the possibility of recalibration or damage due to an overload condition. The connector on the sensor provides for faster wiring and installation, while the recommended self-aligning bearing accommodates limited roller misalignment.
The F 202 Force Measuring Sensor is compatible with the full line of FMS Tension Measuring Amplifiers and Tension Controllers.
