Model 1531 Ceramic Force Transducers Description Model 1531 Force Transducer is manufactured through BCM thick-film technology. The design of 1531 is optimized for its best performance to measure tension. This model is designed for yarn break detection or yarn tension measurement which is often necessary in textile industry. For this purpose, the geometry of the 1531 is specially developed to be integrated into a yarn break detector or a yarn tension transducer with a metal or plastic housing, so as to be able to easily installed in the twisting device or tufting equipment. With a sensor signal conditioning circuit, its output can be conditioned to either analogue (e.g.,1~5Vdc) or digital (e.g.,I2C) signal output. Features - made from ceramics - manufactured by thick film technology - single bending beam of piezo-resistive working principle - low profile with wide range of capacities from 0.1kg to 50kg - low nonlinearity, hysteresis, and nonrepeatablity errors - yarn break detection - yarn tension measurement - tension or compression force measurement Electrical Connections BCM SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES BVBA Industriepark Zone 4, Brechtsebaan 2 website: www.bcmsensor.com B-2900 Schoten - Antwerpen, BELGIUM email: [email protected]
