FSG15N1A Honeywell Wire Lead Strain Gauge 12.7mm, 6kΩ -40°C +85°C

Honeywell Micro Switch Force Sensor - FSG15N1A_x000D_ Our Honeywell force sensor facilitates a precise and reliable force sensing performance. Forming part of the FS Series, Honeywell's sensor has proven sensing technology that utilises a specialised piezoresistive micro-machined silicon sensing element._x000D_ Where can I use my force sensor?_x000D_ The device can sense the force within medical infusion pump applications, contact sensing, robotic end-effectors, kidney dialysis machines, variable tension control and many more._x000D_ How force sensors work?_x000D_ The force sensor component operates through the resistance of silicon implanted piezoresistors increasing when the resistors flex comes under an applied force. The sensor uses force from the application, this is done through the stainless steel plunger directly to the silicon sensing element. The amount of resistance changes in proportion to the amount of force being applied, this change in circuit resistance results in a corresponding mV output level._x000D_ Features & Benefits_x000D_ • Compact, commercial grade packaging_x000D_ • Robust performance characteristics_x000D_ • Quick response times_x000D_ • Honeywell's sensor has a low power consumption_x000D_ • Low off-centre loading errors_x000D_ • Provides stable millivolt outputs over the 1500 gram force range_x000D_ • Modular construction with a stainless steel plunger_x000D_ • Features a load capacity of 5.5kg over-force_x000D_ • Full instruction are supplied with the product_x000D_ • Has a maximum DC voltage of 10V_x000D_ • Has a wide operating temperature range of -40°C - +85°C_x000D_ Note_x000D_ Brackets available in packs of 5 (RS stock number - 238-5066)_x000D_
