SERIES 469 BOLT-ON STRAIN GAUGE SENSORS

BOLT-ON STRAIN GAUGE We offer many types of bolt-on strain sensors, which have been developed to provide rugged and robust solutions for industry. Designed to accommodate for higher stress levels experienced in dynamic applications, our series 469 range of bolt on strain sensors can accommodate for stress values from 0 to 2,000 micro strain as standard. Upon request we are able to extend this range to 10,000 micro strain. Applications for this sensor include: - vehicles, - civil engineering structures, - silos, - hoppers - and specialist engineering projects. They can also be used for other applications...

TYPICAL INSTALLATION Present the sensor to the structure and check alignment of the fixing holes, loosely bolt the sensor to the structure to check that the sensor is not pre-stressed by the bolts. If using adhesives, remove the bolts and apply adhesive to either (a) Both surfaces or (b) One surface and catalyst to the other as directed. Present the sensor to the structure and loosely tighten the bolt by hand. Tighten alternately to achieve an even torque for each of the bolts. The bolt tightening should be carried out in a minimum of three even steps. A typical torque of 40 Nm should be used...
