About the ELAF Miniature Force Sensor

The ELAF series compression and tension load cells raise the bar for high performance at low cost.

The ELAF series load cell employs micro-machined piezo-resistive strain gauges fused with high temperature glass to a high performance stainless steel force measuring flexure. This technology eliminates age-sensitive organic epoxies used in traditional load cell designs providing excellent long term span and zero stability. Operating at very low strains, it utilizes strain gauges providing gauge factors greater than 100, essentially unlimited cycle life expectancy, superior resolution, exceedingly high over-range capabilities (without the need for stops) and an amplified ratiometric high level 0.5 to 4.5 V output or 20 mV/V bridge output. ELAF sensors are suitable for your test and measurement applications. From the ultra compact 0.5” diameter B0 and T1 design to the high range 1.25” diameter B2 package, the ELAF provides exceptional flexibility and superior performance.
