U10M / U10S - Precise Load Cell for Measuring Static and Dynamic Tensile and Compressive Forces

For test bench applications and challenging tasks in production

The rotationally symmetric, low-profile U10 force transducers has multiple uses focusing on applications in test benches, material testing machines, and challenging tasks in production.

Key Features:

Precise

• Minimal linearity deviation
• TC_zero of 150 ppm/10 K or 75 ppm/10 K with 200% calibration
• Small relative reversibility error
• Strain gauges offered featuring optimal creep adjustment from in-house production
• Electrical compensation of bending moments and temperature errors (zero and sensitivity)

Robust

U10 features individual electrical bending moment compensation: Bending (for example resulting from applied lateral forces) does not impact the measurement result. Due to the fact that an electrical compensation method is used (no milling or filing at the measuring body required), the U10's surface is optimally fit for fatigue loading (200% oscillation width).

The low-profile measuring body is characterized by a consistently symmetric design in line withmulti-shear web technology. The housing is welded and hermetically encapsulated. Thanks to its robustness, the force transducer provides IP68 degree of protection (steel versions optionally with integrated cable).

Flexible

U10 optimally adapts to its measurement task: Over 4000 combinations are available. Select from many options such as TEDS, flange or foot adapter version, 100% or 200% calibration, load pin, and more.

Key Benefits:

• Meaningful results with small measurement uncertainties
• An extremely large measuring range in compliance with specified accuracy requirements
• Improved yield in product tests through small error bands
• Reliability even in unfavorable measurement conditions, e.g. temperature gradients
