90x1C

Piezoelectric force sensors, also known as piezoelectric ring force transducers, for precise measurement of tensile and compressive forces in highest resolution.
Main features / advantages
  • Piezoelectric force sensor with two calibrated measuring ranges
  • Very compact ring force transducer
  • Very high stiffness and very low treshold
  • Linearity including hysteresis ≤±0.5%
  • Different degrees of protection available (e.g. IP68)
  • No aging, unlimited service life
The 90x1 family is a piezoelectric (PE) sensor series for force measurement in the z-direction. These ring force transducers contain a quartz sensor element which measures the force directly transferred through the cover and base of the tightly welded steel case. When subjected to a mechanical load, quartz produces an electric charge that is proportional to that load. An outstanding property of quartz is the very low threshold and, thus, a high sensor sensitivity that remains extremely linear over the entire measuring range. Thus the behaviour in a certain measuring range is practically identical for all PE sensors, independent of their size.
