ALL FORCE SENSITIVITY VALUES REPORTED FOR 1" POST HEIGHT.

• CONSULT FACTORY FOR STAND ALONE SENSOR CALIBRATION DATA AND SENSITIVITIES.
• SPECIFICATIONS MAY CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE.

Post -   Add-on feature of various lengths depending on
            equired force range (Standard units available from
            factory.

Sensing Element - Solid steel element with
            imbedded strain sensitive artwork able to
            measure and resolve applied force into
            component vectors.

Signal Conditioning Electronics -
            Amplification and signal conditioning
            package that converts sensor output to
            0-5V or custom output profiles.

       Standard System Comes In Two Options:

• Motion control electronics setting - adjusted for finger activation and motion control.
• Expanded range-force measurement electronics setting - for force measurement electronics setting - for force measurement applications
• Customer can mechanically change the force range by changing the length of the add-on post (See Force Range Selection-Adjustment Guide)

       In Factory Customization Options:

• Customer specific force range and sensitivities as well as custom gain settings
• Customer specific system outputs for standard bus integration and or digital interface requirements
• Expanded operational and non-operational force ranges.
