CMC Series Piezoelectric Measurement Chains for Capacities ranging from 5 kN to 120 kN

Piezoelectric measurement chains of the CMC series are used in various industrial production tasks and reliably convert the forces they measure into a 0 to 10 V signal. They are calibrated throughout, which means that the measurement amplifier doesn’t have to be adjusted and the relationship between the output signal in volts and the force measurement in newtons is clearly documented in the accompanying documents.

Typical for the piezoelectric principle, the sensors have a wide measurement range and measure large and small forces reliably – even under a high initial load. The measurement chains, based on CFT variations with a 5 kN or 20 kN capacity are calibrated at 100% and at 20% of the nominal force, while all other CMC measurement chains have calibrations at 1%, 10% and 100% of their nominal force. The measurement ranges can be switched via a digital input on the charge amplifier; zeroing is triggered just as easily.

All piezoelectric force measurement chains in the CMC series consist of a pre-stressed and calibrated sensor, a charge cable and a charge amplifier. The components can be freely combined and allow the measurement chain to ideally adapt to the respective measurement task at hand.
