About the XFTC300 Miniature Force Sensor

The XFTC300 series has been specifically developed to measure tension and/or compression in static and dynamic applications.

The miniature size and light-weight facilitate testing where these conditions are necessary. The sensing element is fitted with a fully temperature compensated Wheatstone bridge equipped with high stability micro-machined silicon strain gages. The use of silicon strain gages optimizes the load cell’s performance at low ranges and frequencies. For sensors with a range of between 2N and 2kN, a high-level output model is available. With two male threads, the XFTC300 is easily installed in industrial or OEM applications. A strain relief spring strengthens the cable output.

Applications for XFTC300

  • Dynamic strain cylinder regulation
  • Miniature press-fit device
  • Fatigue test benches
  • Robotics regulation
  • Small size actuators
