The LE11 is an encapsulated resistive linear strain gauge with stranded wire that withstands adverse conditions.
Special Encapsulation (LE11)
The LE11 is an encapsulated strain gauge with an IP67 degree of protection (in compliance with the chemical resistance of the adhesives). A 1-meter-long stranded connection wire with fluoropolymer insulation is included in the scope of supply. The LE11 strain gauge is encapsulated in a special plastic material and is, therefore, moisture proof and resistant against chemicals (with the exception of highly concentrated acids such as sulfuric or nitric acid). The LE11 comes with a 2-wire or 4-wire connection. The nominal (rated) resistance is 350 ohms and the temperature response is adapted for steel.
Moisture proof and resistant against chemicals
Excellent zero signal stability with changing moisture.
Wire material is resistant against environmental threats and electrical leakage.
