ALF214 Cylindrical force sensor
Compact force transducer for tension and compression measurements in actuator systems. Ideal for engineering test setups.
Key features
- Measuring range up to 60 kN
- Tension and compression use
- Output 1.2 mV/V or rationalised
Performance highlights
The ALF214 sensor supports bi-directional force measurements up to 60 kN with an accuracy of ±0.1% RL. It delivers a standard output of 1.2 mV/V, with a rationalised 1.0 mV/V ±0.5% version available.
Usage conditions
Designed for both compression and tension usage, it operates reliably between -10 °C and +80 °C. The IP65 rating ensures protection in harsh environments.
Possible applications
- Actuator test benches
- Mechanical linkage force testing
- Laboratory testing setups
- Production quality monitoring
Advantages of choosing this product
Its compact size, high structural stiffness, and multiple range options make the ALF214 suitable for demanding engineering and industrial uses. Standard calibration is provided in both load directions.
Other important features
- Weather-sealed stainless steel housing
- Options with or without through-hole
- Comes with 2 m of shielded cable
- Optional rationalisation to ±0.5%
- Overload safety up to 300% RL
