ALF310 Multi-axis Force Sensor
Axial force and torque transducer
Key features
- Axial force and torque transducer
- Full load range: 50N / 2Nm
- Rated output nominal: 0.6mV/V
- Non-lin./hysteresis: 0.05/0.05% RL
- Dimensions (mm): Ø88 x 45
About the ALF310 Multi-axis Force Sensor
The ALF310 depicted measures force and torque in the same axis with minimal cross talk providing user friendly outputs for direct measurement without mathematical manipulation.
Each channel may be calibrated bi-directionally. The version of the transducer depicted was developed for an OEM producing texture analyzer machines (rheometers) for use in the food process industry.
We are happy to design variants of this loadcell to meet your specific requirements. Variants may include different combinations of force and moment axis e.g. FxMz, FyMx, FzMy etc.
Geometry: Monocoque strain structure with no moving parts.
Notes
1. AL = Applied load. 3. Temperature coefficients apply over the compensated range.
2. RL = Rated load. 4. Values apply to force and moment in all load combinations.
Connections
The ALF310 is fitted with 2 metres of PVC insulated 9 core screened cable type 7-1-9C. The screen is not connected to the loadcell body.
