Considerations for selecting pancake (low profile) force sensors

When choosing pancake (low profile) force sensors for your application, several important factors should be taken into account to ensure optimal performance and compatibility:

• Determine load capacity: Choose a sensor that accurately handles the maximum forces expected, preventing overload and ensuring reliable measurements.
• Check measurement range: Confirm the sensor’s range covers both tension and compression forces required by your application.
• Select compatible output type: Ensure the sensor’s output signal (analog, current, or digital) aligns with your control systems for smooth integration.
• Consider environmental suitability: Select a sensor built to endure your environment’s conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and dust exposure.
• Verify dimensions and mounting needs: Make sure the sensor’s size and mounting requirements match your installation space.
• Focus on durability: For frequent use, opt for a sensor with proven long-term reliability.
• Evaluate calibration needs: Determine if calibration will be necessary during installation or maintenance to maintain accuracy.
