AILC1 Sub-miniature threaded in line load cell
Ultra-compact tension and compression sensor for precise low-force measurement in test and measurement environments.
Key features
- Measures both tension and compression up to 100 N
- Ultra-small form factor (Ø9.5 mm, height 12.2 mm)
- ±0.5% non-linearity for reliable performance
- Stainless steel construction with IP64 rating
- Temperature compensated from -15 to +70 °C
- Supplied with shielded cable and spring strain relief
About the AILC1 Subminiature in line loadcell
The AILC1 Sub-miniature Threaded In Line Load Cell is a high-precision strain gauge transducer designed for applications where space is extremely limited. It accurately measures both tensile and compressive forces up to 100 N, with excellent repeatability and non-linearity better than ±0.5% of full scale.
Usage conditions
Ideal for benchtop, lab and OEM applications, the AILC1 is built from stainless steel for robustness and is rated IP64 for basic environmental protection. The unit is delivered with a 1.5-meter long, #36 AWG braided shielded cable for optimal signal integrity. A protective stainless steel spring sleeve provides strain relief near the sensor body.
Possible applications
- Low-force mechanical testing
- Biomechanical instrumentation
- Robotics and actuator feedback
- Precision test benches
- OEM integration in space-constrained systems
Advantages of choosing this product
Choosing the AILC1 ensures high-accuracy measurement in tight spaces. Its compact, rugged build and dual threaded mounting make it easy to integrate into any setup. The sensor can be adapted with optional connectors or custom cabling upon request.
Other important features
- Withstands 150% of full-scale load without performance loss
- Low hysteresis and excellent repeatability
- Custom temperature ranges and output options available
- Optional version with TEDS chip and connector
- Compatible with Althen data acquisition systems
