FlexiForce A301-100 lbs Force Sensor

DESCRIPTION

FlexiForce A301-100 lbs Force Sensor is optimized for high volume manufacturing and ideal for embedding into products and applications.

The sensor has a force range of 0 – 100 lb. The force ranges stated are approximations. In order to measure forces above 100 lbs (up to 1000 lbs), apply a lower drive voltage, and reduce the resistance of the feedback resistor.

Features:

• Small size is ideal for prototyping and integration
• Available with Enhanced Stability Series (ESS) pressure-sensitive ink for high-temperature and high-humidity environments
• Thin and flexible
• Easy to use

Typical Performance:

• Linearity (Error):  < ±3% of Full Scale (Line drawn from 0 to 50% load)
• Repeatability:  < ±2.5% (Conditioned Sensor, 80% of Full Force Applied)
• Hysteresis:  < 4.5 % of Full Scale (Conditioned Sensor, 80% of Full Force Applied)
• Drift:  <5% / logarithmic time (Constant Load of 25 lb (111 N))
• Response Time:  < 5 µsec (Time required for the sensor to respond to an input force; Impact load – recorded on Oscilloscope)
• Operating Temperature:  -40°C – 60°C (-40°F – 140°F)
