C6B Force Transducer: For Nominal Forces Ranging from 200 kN to 10 MN

The C6B force transducers are based on compression bars, a design that is well suited for very large forces and stands for small displacements – ideal for highly dynamic measurements, for example, in impact tests or fast joining processes.

The C6B series is characterized by its excellent price-to-performance ratio, which is especially true for the variants with integrated electronics. The sensors are completely made of stainless steel, hermetically sealed, and have a high degree of protection (IP68). An extensive range of options allows for adaptation to the measurement task at hand. The versions up to 2 MN have an internal bore. This has proven particularly useful in anchor or rope tension monitoring.

HBM accuracy class: 0.5
Nominal (rated) measurement ranges: 200 kN to 10 MN
Outputs: 2 mV/V, 0... 10 V, or 4... 20 mA, as required
Degree of protection: up to IP68

Our tips:

Order the C6B complete with its force applications parts. In this case, the sensor and the force application parts are calibrated together. Benefit from increased accuracy in your application!
New: Now also available with an integrated amplifier. Benefit from efficiency, absolute reliability, and easy setup!
