Crystal piezoelectric strain sensor 9237B

Installed on the movable or non-movable parts of the processing machine, it is ideal for dynamic and quasi-static force measurement!

This strain sensor is robust and can be installed on either the movable or non-movable parts of a machine, making it ideal for measuring dynamic and quasi-static forces. To measure force, the sensor is installed on the surface of the machine or its components, measuring the strain that is proportional to the force applied at that location. -* Features *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- • Wide measurement range for both compressive and tensile forces • High sensitivity, capable of measuring small strains • Resistant to breakage under overload • Robust and ideal for industrial applications (IP67) • Easy installation with just one screw

basic information

The strain in the measurement section is transmitted through two contact points located on the bottom surface of the sensor. The sensor case itself undergoes elastic deformation and transmits the strain to the quartz piezoelectric element. The quartz piezoelectric element generates a charge Q [Pc] that is proportional to the amount of strain. Compared to strain gauge types, the quartz piezoelectric type has higher sensitivity and is more resistant to overload. It also has a long lifespan and provides excellent repeatability and stability in measurements. The measured signal can be used as a relative value. If used as an absolute value (N, kN), the sensor needs to be calibrated with a known load. Thanks to its robust structure and stainless steel case, it can be used in harsh environments. In particular, the 9237B20 achieves IP67, allowing it to be used in dusty and high-humidity environments when used with the dedicated cable 1915A.
