FC23 OEM Compression Load Cell
Brand: American Sensor Technologies Inc
The FC23 is a high compression force sensor that creates new markets previously unrealizable due to cost and performance constraints.
The FC23 offers normalized zero and span for interchangeability and is thermally compensated for changes in zero and span with respect to temperature. The FC23 incorporates MEAS’ proprietary Micro-fused™ technology which employs micromachined silicon piezoresistive strain gauges fused with high temperature glass to a high performance stainless steel substrate.
Micro-fused™ technology eliminates age sensitive organic epoxies used in traditional load cell designs providing excellent long term span and zero stability. The FC23 measures direct force and is therefore not subject to lead-die fatigue failure common with competitive designs which use a pressure capsule embedded within a silicone gel-filled cavity.
Operating at very low strains, Micro-fused™ technology provides an essentially unlimited cycle life expectancy, superior resolution, and high over-range capabilities.
