The K-U10M is our high-end sensor for tensile and compressive forces - ready to be configured in accordance with your needs. NEW: IO-Link option with integrated amplifer.

Find below some explanations to our options.

Capacity

The sensor is available in measurement ranges from 1.25 kN to 1.25 MN.

Number of measuring bridges

The U10M 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.

Rated output adjustment

The U10M force sensors have a rated output in the range from 2 mV/V to 2.5 mV/V (steel types, capacities higher than 5 kN) or from 1 mV/V to 1.5 mV/V (aluminum types). The sensors can be adjusted to 2 mV/V (or 1 mV/V for the aluminum types) on request (J). In this case, the output resistance is also adjusted so that you can connect several sensors in parallel using one amplifier input. Nominal (rated) force 1.25 MN is not suitable for connection in parallel.

NOTE: If you order the U10M with integrated amplifier, the sensor is adjusted as a measuring chain - no need for a passive adjustment (N).

Calibration

The U10M comes along with a calibration to 100 % of the measurement range (1) in the standard version. If required, HBK performs a calibration to 200 % of the measurement range (2). In case of choosing the 200 % option, the rated output is doubled as well. Steel types can have an rated output up to 4 mV/V.

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.

NOTE: TEDS only for sensors without integrated amplifier module.

Mechanical design

The U10M is delivered with a foot adapter (load base) as standard (W). Upon request, we can deliver the sensor without (N) as a flange. This reduces the height. Please note the requirements for the surface quality of the construction element, to which the U10M flange is mounted, as mentioned in the manual.

Plug protection

The U10M can be ordered with a plug protection. This is a massive square profile mounted around the connector to protect it from mechanical damage (P). Standard is without plug protection (U).

Electrical connection Bridge A

The standard version is a bayonet connector (PT02E106P6P-compatible) (B). You can order a screw-type plug (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). In this version, all U10Ms with a nominal (rated) force of at least 12.5 kN achieve degree of protection IP68. Sensors with a digital output (VAIO) are connected via the 4-pin M12 plug (00A4).

Electrical connection Bridge B

See electrical connection bridge A.

Force application part

The U10M comes along with an internal thread for mechanical connection (O). A load introduction bolt can be mounted on request (L). The bolt is pre-stressed for best results.

Plug version for the fixed mounted cables

If you have ordered the U10M 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
P = ODU plug, 14-pin, degree of protection IP68, for connecting to all HBK amplifiers of the Somat XR series that are suitable for measuring full bridge circuits
M = M12 female connector, 8-pin for our Digibox amplifier module
X = No cable

Integrated amplifier

Standard U10M force transducers are passive (mV/V) sensors (N). If you order your U10M with integrated amplifier with IO-Link interface (VAIO), the U10M comes along as calibrated measurement chain. After connected to an IO-Link master, the device sends correct measurement values in N. Please note that you need to choose M12 plug as an electrical connection. TEDS and adjusted output are not required, so that you can not order these options in combination with an integrated amplifier.

Firmware version

If you order a U10M with an integrated amplifier, you will get the latest firmware version, unless you choose an older version that is still available.
