Kistler Model 9249A Quartz Longitudinal Measuring Pin
Extremely small quartz strain sensor with
integrated cable for indirect measurement of forces in machinery, tools and assembly processes.
The sensor is fitted with
an accurately defined preload. The strain in the material is transmitted to the quartz measuring element by the fastening thread
M5 (mounting nut) and the front of the sensor.
The latter yields an electric charge proportional to the change in
strain, which is converted by a charge amplifier into a voltage; this voltage can then be further processed as required.
Applications include monitoring forces and strains in machinery and tools. The compact quartz longitudinal measuring pin
M5 measures dynamic and quasistatic forces indirectly and is also suitable for measuring very large forces.
• Miniaturized strain sensor
• Integrated cable
• Measurement of tensile and compression forces up to the Meganewton range
• No finish machining in the mounting bore necessary
