Product overview
Rectangular-cover construction
Threaded attachments at both ends introduce the tensile or compressive load. Nominal bridge sensitivity is 2.0 ±0.05 mV/V.
- Input resistance
- 380 ±30 Ω
- Output resistance
- 350 ±5 Ω
Circular-face construction
Alternative S-type body with a circular side face. The cable exits through a metal spring strain relief.
- Excitation
- 5–12 V
- Cable length
- 3 m
Configuration and selection
5–300 kg dimension reference
Rectangular-cover construction, including the additional W1 width.
0.5–5 t dimension reference
Circular-face construction with the threaded load attachments marked M.
