Ranges are indicative industry figures for RFQ preparation, not a supplier commitment. Confirm every value and standard with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
This component is essential for the following industrial systems and equipment:
| pressure: | 0 to 100 bar (depending on housing rating) |
| other spec: | Overload capacity: 150% of rated force/torque, IP67/IP69K protection available |
| temperature: | -40°C to +85°C (operational), -55°C to +125°C (storage) |
Indicative industry ranges for design and RFQ preparation. Confirm the exact figures and applicable standard with the manufacturer before specifying.

Manufacturer profiles associated with Force/Torque Sensor.
Manufacturer listings support early research and capability understanding. They are not certification, ranking, or transaction guarantees.
A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
Force measurement quantifies linear push or pull, typically in newtons or kilonewtons. Torque measurement quantifies rotational force, typically in newton-meters. The sensor can measure both depending on its design and mounting.
Select based on the maximum expected force or torque in your application, ensuring it does not exceed the sensor's rated capacity. Operating near the rated capacity may reduce accuracy and lifespan. Consult the manufacturer for guidance.
Accuracy class indicates the maximum permissible error as a percentage of full scale (FS), per ISO 7500-1. A lower value means higher accuracy. For example, 0.1% FS means the error is within 0.1% of the full-scale reading.
Verify model-specific specifications, including rated capacity, accuracy, and environmental ratings, with the legal manufacturer or supplier. Calibration should be performed using traceable standards to ensure accuracy.
