FS SERIES CIRCUIT

1. Circled numbers refer to

sensor terminals (pins).

Pin 1 = Supply V

S (+)

Pin 2 = Output Vo

(+)

Pin 3 = Ground Vg (-)

Pin 4 = Output VO (-)

2. The force sensor may be

current. Maximum supply

voltage is not to exceed

12 volts. Maximum supply

current is not to exceed

1.6 mA. Power is applied

across Pin 1 and Pin 3.

* Non-compensated force sensors, excited by constant current (1.5 mA) instead of

voltage, exhibit partial temperature compensation of Span.

** BFSL: Best Fit Straight Line

ENVIRONMENTAL SPECIFICATIONS

Operating temperature -40 °C to 85 °C [-40 °F to 185 °F]

Storage temperature -40 °C to 100 °C [-40°F to 212 °F]

Shock Qualification tested to 150 g

Vibration Qualification tested to 0 to 2 kHz, 20 g sine

MCTF 20 million at 25 °C [77 °F]

Solderability 5 sec at 315 °C [599 °F] per lead

Output ratiometric Within supply range

3. The sensor output should

be measured as a

differential voltage across

Pin 2 and Pin 4 (V

O = V2 -

4). The output is

ratiometric to the supply

voltage. Shifts in supply

voltage will cause shifts in

output. Neither Pin 2 nor

Pin 4 should be tied to

ground or voltage supply.

Note: All force related specifications are established using dead weight or compliant

force.
