HBM PROVIDES PRECISE MEASUREMENTS IN TOUGH CONDITIONS

17 April 2015

HBM has expanded its range of IP68 rated products to meet demand for applications in harsh environments that need powerful force transducers with a high resistance to external influences


The new stainless steel C10 force sensor provides a high degree of precision in compressive force measurement, in even the most demanding of environments.

The sensor offers 75ppm and is said to present excellent linearity and hysteresis values. The sensors accuracy classes, which are between 0.03 and 0.06, depending on the nominal force, which ranges from 2.5kN to 1MN, can be freely configured according to the application with a variety of options.

The sensor's core is protected from external influences such as dirt and moisture in a stainless steel measuring body which comes with optional integrated cable to achieve IP68 rating.  

The U10M flat shaped force sensor achieves IP68 protection. Suitable for use in ambient conditions, the U10M range can measure nominal (rated) forces from 1.25 to 500kN.

Achieving the equivalent level of protection under the same conditions is the S9M Force Transducer which features an accuracy class of up to 0.02 for nominal (rated) forces between 500N and 50kN. The S9M provides clear and precise measurement results.
