HBK C2 Force Sensor

HBK C2 Force Sensor

C2 Force Sensor: Reliable Compressive Force Measurement

C2 can be found in production surrounding, e.g. for the measurement of joining forces or press force monitoring. C2's are also very suitable for fast measurements in experiments or validation tests.

The C2 force sensor, tried and tested over a long time, is a diaphragm sensor, for a design that is very well-suited for fast measurements.

This sensor, with integrated lateral force compensation, works safely even in the event of lateral forces or non-centric force application.

Improved reliability: The Sensor Health monitoring of the C2 sends warnings in case of exceeding temperature or mechanical limits before problems occur.
More information: Temperature measurement, statistical information.
Many configuration options: mounted plugs, TEDS and various cable lengths.
Standard instrument features: Limit switches, peak detection, digital output, filter.
Fast: Internal sampling rate: 40 kHz, 0.9 ms cycling time to the IO-Link master.

Practice-oriented

All variants are made of stainless steel and have a high degree of protection (IP67).
Shock and EMC tested in compliance with international standards.
Compact dimensions.

Benefit from the C2’s maturity and long-life technology.

Small displacement, excellent dynamics

The C2 shows only little deflection under load
Its high stiffness ensures excellent dynamic behavior, excellent for fast measurements
Suitable for static measurements due to strain gauge technology

Solve both static and dynamic measurement tasks using the C2.
