M56501

The strain gauge dummy load cells of the family Type M56501A are designed to measure the force in the area of femur of the crash test dummies THOR-50% (TH) and WorldSID-50% (WS).
Main features / advantages
  • Universal femur
  • Uniaxial (Fz)
  • DTI or analog version
  • Low linearity and hysteresis
  • Compatible with structural replacement
  • Polarities according to SAE J211/1
The family Type M56501 dummy load cells are based on strain gauges using deformation bodies in which the forces and moments to be measured are introduced. To avoid linearity errors, the deformation paths are structurally designed for measurement applications so that a very proportional behavior can be realized. The strain gauges applied to these bodies enable the transformation of mechanical loads to proportional changes in resistance measured by a Wheatstone bridge.
