The closed structural design of the strain link transducer DA-01 which is made of galvanized stainless steel renders it particularly suitable for measuring the extension and indirect forces affecting machine elements and components in a rough environment.

The installation is most simple by merely mounting the sensor with four M8 bolts to a plain surface of the material, which makes any direct bonding and the adjustment of extension measuring tapes superfluous.

The device can be used for monitoring forces, for metering the filling level and for recording the extension of building components, predominantly those made of steel and aluminum, to name just a few fields of application. The signal, the temperature behavior and the transmission ratio are based on the principle applied and depend on how both the geometry and the material of the sensor and the component are mated.

Ideally, the sensor will therefore be calibrated best by applying a known force to the component concerned under the ambient conditions that are typical of the measurement.

The following further features are for indicating the there DA-01:
passive surface strain sensor with full bridge, for cyclical applications, suitable for strain measurements on rigid structures, sensor exchange w/o recalibration.
