U10F
Like the proven U10M and C10 transducers, the especially low-profile force transducers of the U10F series use the shear force transducer measurement principle to enable them to achieve the same outstanding accuracy and small deflection as their sister models. This makes the U10F load cells suitable for acquiring fast, dynamic force trends and static forces.
The sensors are hermetically welded and made of stainless steel. The installation process is significantly facilitated by flange connections on both sides, in comparison to sensors with central threads. To facilitate this process, HBK offers screw sets with a coated finish for corrosion protection. The coating also ensures a uniform and low coefficient of friction, eliminating the need for greasing or oiling of the screws.
Various practical configurations allow the U10F, like its sister models (the U10M and C10), to be adapted flexibly to suit different measurement tasks.
Please have a look at the K-U10F model. Beside many other options, you can find order information for the IO-Link version as well.
Investing in accuracy today will ensure cost-effectiveness in the long term. Precision enables a larger measurement range. Perform more measurement tasks using the same sensor.
The U10F is a reliable product. Climatic and EMC testing at HBK ensures failsafe operation even under difficult conditions. The integrated amplifier option is a further enhancement to its reliability.
Fast and reliable installation using standard tools. Clear specification of the mechanical load capacity in practical use!
