The compressing cylinder serves for the taking of axial pressure strengths. Use is carried out for including of static and dynamic strengths to feathers, screw connections, presses etc. The robust form makes a universal use possible under rough conditions in the industry.

It works according to the compressing cylinder principle. With it can be strength, caused by weights, one pressing strengths and friction strengths measured. The strength introduction is alone carried out via compressing pipe foot and end wall (red labeled).

The force transducer can get prestressed like a washer.

The application room for the stretching measuring stripe (strain gauge) is offered protection against chemical and mechanical charges with one of a very elastic mass.

The strain gauge full bridges measure this one for appeared deformations for the cylinder by the compression. An amplifier attached externally produces the output signal of 4 -20 mA.

In the unloaded state can by add-ons of the calibrating checking signal (software calibration) the nominal output current be produced. With that is a check of force transducer with amplifier and the following measuring facilities possible.
