Upgraded miniature force transducer suits multiple applications
HBM is launching upgraded versions of its U9C and C9C miniature force transducers that are individually configurable and offer high measurement accuracy, making them suitable for many different applications. These range from dynamic tests and production tasks through to static testing of many different types of equipment such as determining the contact forces in ultrasonic welding, the calibration of hardness testing machines and testing Bowden cables.
The U9C is designed for tensile and compressive loading while the C9C is intended for compressive forces. There are numerous options available for each of the force transducers ensuring their suitability for a variety of measurement tasks. The cable length and connector type can be individually selected while the connectors can be equipped with an optional TEDS chip for storing sensor data. This facility ensures that the amplifier is automatically set up when it is connected with a transducer.
Hermetically welded, the transducers have IP67 degree of protection as standard. They feature an accuracy class of 0.2 that is a significant optimisation compared with the previous version and other similar transducers. Each of the models is available in 10 measurement ranges from 50N to 50kN.
The U9C and C9C transducers are electrically and mechanically compatible with previous versions and are designed to be particularly compact to facilitate integration into existing applications. Please visit www.hbm.com for further information.
