FS20 Low Force Compression Load Cell SPECIFICATIONS 500 to 5000 Grams-Force Amplified Output Interchangeable Industry Standard Packaging CE Compliance The FS20 is a low compression force sensor that creates new markets previously unrealizable due to cost and performance constraints. The FS20 offers normalized zero and span for interchangeability and is thermally FEATURES compensated for changes in zero and span with respect to temperature. Small Size, Low Noise The FS20 incorporates TEs proprietary Microfused Robust, High Reliability technology which employs micromachined silicon High Over-Range Capability piezoresistive strain gages fused with high temperature Low Deflection glass to a high performance stainless steel substrate. Essentially Unlimited Cycle Life Expectancy Microfused technology eliminates age-sensitive organic Low Off Center Errors epoxies used in traditional load cell designs providing Fast Response Time excellent long term span and zero stability. The FS20 Industry Standard Packaging measures direct force and is therefore not subject to lead- 500 to 5000 Grams-Force Range die fatigue failure common with competitive designs which Reverse Polarity Protected use a pressure capsule embedded within a silicone gel- filled cavity. Operating at very low strains, Microfused technology provides an essentially unlimited cycle life APPLICATIONS expectancy, superior resolution, and high over-range Robotics End-Effectors capabilities. Variable Force Control The FS20 brings your OEM product to life whether Load and Compression Sensing you need thousands or millions of load cells annually. Medical Pumps Although the standard model is ideal for a wide range of Contact Sensing applications, our dedicated design team at our Load Cell Weighing Engineering Center is ready to provide you with custom Household Appliances designs for your OEM applications. Please refer to the FC22 and FC23 for higher force applications.
