C5 - reference pressure gauge up to 20MN
C5: New reference force transducer class 00 according to ISO 376 in the range up to 20MN
The C5 force transmission standards reach class 00 according to ISO 376 in the measuring range between 40% and 100% of the respective rated force, i.e. in the highest version up to 20MN. To achieve the best repeatability, the internal layout of the strain gauge application ensures that the influence of eccentric loads and bending moments is minimised.
The C5 force gauge can be equipped according to the needs of the intended application. The optional double bridge, for example, allows the separation of reference and input signals or the realisation of an electrically isolated emergency shutdown. The optional bending moment bridges are useful for detecting the bending moment of the calibration device and can also provide important information about changes in the machine when the C5 is used as a reference sensor.
All C5 reference force gauges also have a removable base plate for easy handling. Also included is a pressure piece for introducing force, conforming to ISO 376.
