The K-C5 force transfer standard is our heavy duty compressive force transducer - ready to be configured in accordance with your needs.

Find bellow some explanations to our options.

Capacity

The sensor is available in measurement ranges from 5 MN to 20 MN.

Number of measuring bridges

The C5 force sensors are available in single bridge (SB) or double bridge (DB) versions. Double bridge sensors feature two independent measurement circuits, so the sensor has two outputs. This can be used to connect two different amplifiers working independently.

Bending moment bridges

You can purchase the force transducer with (WB) or without bending moment bridges (NB). If you select the bending moment bridges option, the C5 comes with two galvanically isolated bending moment bridges, so that you can measure the effective bending moments independently of the other measured quantities.

Transducer identification

You can order your sensor with a “Transducer Electronic Data Sheet”, TEDS (T). In this case, your sensor is equipped with an electronic memory that is programmed with the technical characteristics of the sensor. If the sensor is connected to an instrument with TEDS 0-wire functionality, for example, HBK's Quantum models or the ClipX modules, the instrument will read out the specific data and the setup process will run automatically.

Plug protection

The C5 can be ordered with a plug protection. This is a strong square tube mounted around the connector to protect it from mechanical damage (P). Standard is without plug protection (U).

Electrical connection

The standard version is a bayonet connector (PT02E106P6P-compatible) (B). You can order a threaded connector (PC02E106P compatible) as well (G). A third variant where the force transducers are fitted with a fixed cable is also available (K = 6 m cable, V = 15 m cable).

Plug version for the fixed mounted cables

If you have ordered the C5 with an integrated cable, you can have a plug mounted at the end of the cable, so the force sensor can be connected directly to your amplifier.

Y = Free ends, no plug assembly
F = D-sub-HD15, for connecting to MGC+ (e.g. AP01) or Scout amplifiers
Q = HD-sub-HD15, for connecting to many HBK signal conditioners in the Quantum series (MX410, MX440, MX840, MX430, MX238)
N = MS plug, for connecting to HBK signal conditioner, such as MGC+ (AP03), DMP or DK38
O = No cable

Overloading

The standard version is without overloading (N). On request, you can choose the option of overloading the force transducer as preparation for calibration (Y).
