Weldable Strain Sensor for long term measurements on metalic structures

This sensor is designed for spot-welding to metallic structures and is available with braided cables for laboratory use or reinforced cables for outdoor applications. It withstands temperatures from –40 °C to 100 °C and offers an extended strain measurement range up to ±10,000 µm/m. Ideal for demanding environments such as marine structures, offshore platforms, and other wet or salty conditions. For temperature correction, pair with the corresponding temperature sensor and use protective accessories to ensure long-term durability.

Immediate Readiness

Spot-weld installation ensures instant, reliable measurements and offers a faster, more secure attachment compared to glued or bolted alternatives.

Extreme Conditions

Operates reliably in demanding environments such as marine and offshore structures where moisture and salt are prevalent. Offers extended strain measurement ranges up to ±10,000 µm/m and temperature ranges from –40 °C to 100 °C.

Robust Design

Available with braided or reinforced cables for lab and outdoor use, ensuring superior mechanical protection compared to standard fiber sensors.
