About the FN3042 Cylindrical Force Sensor
The FN3042 is highly suited for use in test benches and fatigue tests. Due to the mechanical design, the FN3042 is especially durable.
Dedicated to fatigue tests benches, the FN3042 is able to undergo more than 10 million cycles of full scale with very little change in zero offset stability.
The sensor housing can be supplied fully stainless steel with high IP protection level for fatigue test benches or regulation in high temperature or corrosive fluids environments.
We often work with customers to design or customize sensors for specific uses and testing environments.
Applications for FN3042
- Crash test walls and plates
- Hydraulic cylinder regulation
- Dynamic lifetime component tests
- Aerospace structure test beds
- Laboratory and research
