The new IP68 rated stainless steel C10 force sensor provides high precision in compressive force measurement, even in the most demanding of environments.

The C10 sensor's accuracy classes, which are between 0.03 and 0.06, depending on the nominal force, which ranges from 2.5kN to 1MN, can be freely configured according to the application with a variety of options.

The U10M range can measure nominal (rated) forces from 1.25kN to 500kN.

Also achieving the equivalent level of protection under the same conditions is the S9M, which features an accuracy class of up to 0.02 for nominal (rated) forces between 500N and 50kN.
