Force Sensor ZAK

Force Sensor ZAK

Product catalog summary
Overview: The ZAK tension force sensors are designed for direct measurement of forces in cables, wires, ropes, or tapes. They are ideal for use in machinery that already incorporates deflection or guide rollers, such as cable making machines, stranding machines, foil capacitor manufacturing, and label printing machinery.
Design and Features: The sensor operates on the double beam principle, ensuring high precision even with off-center loads. It includes mechanical stops for overload protection and uses strain gauges on cantilever beams to measure forces. The strain gauge bridge is powered by a stabilized DC voltage from a HAEHNE amplifier for signal processing.
Special Features:
  • Stainless steel construction
  • Measuring range from 10 to 2000 N
  • Easy assembly with minimal space requirements
  • Overload protection via mechanical stops
  • Available in flange mounting and clamp versions
Scope of Supply: The force sensor comes with a 5 m PVC cable and axial output with a cable connection. Variants include straight and right-angled plug connections (M12, moulded).
Additional Options:
  • Radial cable output (Option R)
  • Reduced protection (IP54)
  • Use in explosive areas with J-Box (Option F)
Technical Data:
  • Nominal force range: 10 to 2000 N
  • Overload protection: 1000%, max 3200 N
  • Max operating force: 160%
  • Max lateral force: 100%
  • Nominal rating: 1 mV/V for 10 to 20 N sensors, 1.5 mV/V for 50 N sensors
  • Combined error: 0.5%
  • Nominal ambient temperature: +10 to +60°C (+50 to +140°F)
  • Nominal resistance of strain gauge bridge: 700 Ω
  • Bridge supply voltage: 10 V DC
  • Enclosure protection: IP65 (Variants T, N2, S2, Option R), IP54 (Option P)
Installation Notes: When assembling axes adapters or similar devices, ensure no torque affects the internal measuring elements. Assembly should be completed before installation into a machine, using a wrench for countering. Pay attention to the red dot indicating the measuring direction.

Scope of Supply Force sensor with 5 m cable (PVC), axial output with cable connection T: cable gland, straight Variants N2: Plug connection, straight, M12, moulded S2: Plug connection, right-angled, M12, moulded Additional Options R: Radial cable output F: For use in explosive areas, incl. J-Box Additional Accessories ZAK- Mounting flange ZAK- Clamp device • Stainless steel design • Measuring range from 10 to 2000 N • Easy assembly and small space requirement • Overload protection utilizing mechanical stops • Flange mounting and clamp version available Tension force sensors of the type ZAK were specifically developed for direct measurement of forces acting in cables, wires, ropes, or tapes. They can best be installed in places where the design of the machine already requires the use of deflection rollers or guide rollers. This is e.g.the case in situations such as - cable making machines - stranding machines - foil capacitor manufacturing - label printing machinery etc. The sensor is designed according to the double beam principle. This results in high precision measurement even in off center load situations. Mechanical stops limit the measuring deflection and provide overload protection. Strain gauges applied to the active surfaces of the cantilever beam measure the acting forces. The strain gauge bridge is supplied with stabilized DC voltage from a strain gauge amplifier of the HAEHNE program for further processing of the measuring signals.
