Series R04

Miniature Force Sensors

Extremely compact force measurement sensors for tensile and compressive loads in applications with limited space. The Series R04 is available in capacities from 0.25 to 100 lbF (1 to 500 N). Every capacity has the same miniature dimensions. The sensors feature outstanding mechanical overload protection and threaded holes on two sides for the mounting of attachments or implements.

Compatible with Mark-10 indicators, (sold separately) through unique Plug & Test® technology. A combined certificate for the sensor and an indicator is available at time of order at no charge, part no. CERT-SI.

Features

  • Member of the Plug & Test® family of interchangeable sensors and indicators
  • Ultra-compact size
  • Measures tensile and compressive forces
  • NIST-traceable certificate of calibration with data is included.
    A combined certificate for the sensor and an indicator is available at time of order at no charge, part no. CERT-SI.
