SI-H Force Transducer, 0-20g

Click here to view the current Data Sheet. 

Different transducer bodies can be exchanged and set and zeroed to the same bridge amplifier at the touch of a button. After a simple calibration with an appropriate weight, the system is ready to use.

Mounting Devices

A variety of convenient fiber mounting devices are available in two lengths and two shaft diameters.

Length:

• The 32mm length is ideal for standard, isometric forces.
• Choose the 22mm length when using a motor.

Shaft diameter :

• Use the 0.8mm for the KG4 and KG7B force transducers.
• Use the 0.5mm for the KG4A and KG7.

The KG20 and the KG2B have unique mounting devices.
