Tension and Compression Force Sensors
Also known as load cells, these sensors measure and track the forces of your equipment by converting them into electrical signals. Send these signals to your computer or programmable logic controller (PLC) to monitor, document, and trigger actions in your machinery.
When choosing a sensor, consider whether you’ll be measuring tension, compression, or both; what shape would fit your application best; and how you’ll mount them. Select sensors with a capacity rating higher than the greatest load you expect them to receive. They’re designed to briefly handle forces 1.5 times greater than their load capacity to protect them from unexpected overload.
To connect your sensor to a computer, PLC, or both, choose a sensor with a connection kit. Kits include everything you need to relay data.
Threaded hole and threaded through-hole sensors are often used to weigh items in packaging machine bins, conveyors, and chutes. Use two or more to accurately measure uneven loads. Round with threaded through-hole sensors can be bolted to surfaces and have a low profile for applications with limited clearance. They're commonly used to measure clamping forces.
Button sensors have a low profile to fit where there’s limited clearance. They’re often used for weight sensing in packaging machinery and for pressure sensing in medical device prototypes.
Threaded standoff sensors have a threaded hole to connect to eye bolts, rod ends, and threaded rods. They’re commonly mounted upside-down between a tank and a leveling mount to weigh material in small tanks and silos. Dual-sided threaded standoff sensors have threaded holes on opposite sides, so you can attach them between two components, such as a hanging scale and its load.
Threaded stud sensors screw into equipment. Dual-sided threaded stud sensors can monitor push-pull forces, such as when testing the durability of a folding car seat over many repetitions.
S-shaped sensors are a common choice for monitoring and testing tension in wires, cords, ropes, and harnesses.
PC connection kits link sensors to a computer or tablet via USB cord and can be used with an LCD display. The included software plots and analyzes measurements, letting you track high, low, and average values over time. The software can set off connected alarms or notify you by email or text message when measurements fall outside a certain range. Data can also be exported to Microsoft Excel and other analytical software such as MATLAB and LabVIEW.
PLC connection kits send an analog signal (not for use with an LCD display) from sensors to your PLC to trigger actions in your system, such as diverting items on a conveyor that exceed a certain weight.
PLC/PC connection kits let you use the tracking and notification features of the PC software and the trigger functions of a PLC simultaneously.
All IP rated sensors seal out dust. IP66 rated sensors stand up to spraying water. IP67 rated sensors won’t fail if briefly submersed.

Digital Displays for Tension and Compression Force Sensors
View weight measurements from your tension and compression force sensor. These displays, also known as indicators, connect directly to your sensor. They can also be paired with a connection hub to display the summed weight from multiple sensors.

Tension and Compression Force Gauges
Check how much force a part can take before it bends, stretches, or breaks. These tension and compression force gauges come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they’ve passed a test for accuracy. Lightweight, they’re easy to hold in the field but can also be used with a stand (sold separately) for quicker, more controlled and consistent testing. Unlike digital gauges, they don’t require charging or a power source. Activate the peak-hold setting to keep the highest reading on the display.
These gauges include various attachments for you to use depending on what you’re testing for and the part you’re testing—whether it’s a button, spring, or the nozzle on an aerosol can. For compression testing, attach one of the tips and push the gauge against the surface of your part. Cone tips are best for small surfaces while flat tips are best for large surfaces. For tension testing, choose a hook attachment size based on what can securely pull your part without slipping. All measuring attachments thread onto the shaft. To make it easier to measure the force of heavy loads, these gauges also have holes either on the back or the side for mounting handles (not included with all gauges).
Note: These gauges are not recommended for testing that pushes a part past its breaking point.

Manual stands with a lever handle are good for high-volume testing. They’re quick to use but not as precise as stands with a wheel handle. Manual stands with a wheel handle are good for low-volume testing. They give you better control of motion than stands with a lever handle, so they’re more precise.
Motorized stands give you the most control. Use the easy-to-read LCD screen and dial to control settings, including how the far the stand moves your gauge up and down, how fast, and how often. You can also save settings for consistent, repeatable testing.

Torque Sensors
Measure and record manually applied torque. These sensors convert torque into an electrical signal that your computer or programmable logic controller (PLC) can read.
Sensors with a PC connection kit include software that plots and analyzes measurements, so you can track highs, lows, and averages over time. If measurements fall outside a certain range, the software can also set off alarms or send you an email. Export your data to Excel, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and other programs for analysis. Connect to a computer or tablet with the included USB cord. Sensors with a wireless PC connection kit also have a built-in transmitter that uses Wi-Fi to send signals to a USB receiver plugged into your PC.
Sensors with a PLC connection kit send signals to a PLC to trigger actions in your system, such as checking for proper fastening between joints or connections. They can also trigger robotic arms and other machinery to apply a precise amount of force.
Drive adapters let you connect these sensors to the drive of a torque wrench.
Use base plates to mount these sensors to a flat surface for testing.
