Force sensors in laser-welded housings

Innovative Sensor Technology IST AG is expanding its product portfolio to include force sensors supplied in laser-welded stainless-steel housings.

Protection against splashing water and simplified mounting

Both the new flat diaphragm sensor and the sensors of the KZ-011-0400 "Centered Force Sensor" series are now optionally offered in a stainless-steel housing. The housing not only protects against splash water, but also simplifies mounting without mechanical stresses, since the sensor element is only inserted into the housing and not connected to it. Thus, the housing can be screwed to the substrate without shifting the zero offset of the sensor.

The sensors are also equipped with a cable strain relief and, in case of the KZ-011-0400 series, an overload protection made of precision foil, which limits the deflection of the sensor.
