Product overview

Cylindrical HFS-TS3 tension sensor with two locking nuts, a short exposed shaft and side cable outlet

Threaded tension sensor

Two locking nuts on the threaded body, with an exposed shaft and a side cable outlet.

Bending structure
One end fixed and the opposite end subject to force.
Tension signal
Analogue voltage sensitivity expressed in mV/V of excitation.
Threaded body
Stainless-steel body with two locking nuts and a protected cable outlet.
Side and end views of the threaded tension sensor, with overall length 125, two SW32 nuts, M27×2 body thread and M5 end thread

Threaded body and locknut dimensions

The side view locates the two locknuts and cable entry; the end view shows the 32 across-flat body profile. Dimensional units require confirmation. Confirm the body size, mounting threads and cable clearance for your selected sensor before designing the fixture.
