Description
FSS1500NST Honeywell Force Sensor
DESCRIPTION
The FSS Series Force Sensor provides precise, reliable force
sensing performance in a compact, commercial-grade package
at a cost effective price. The sensor features a proven sensing
technology that uses a specialized piezoresistive,
micromachined silicon sensing element. The low power,
unamplified, uncompensated Wheatstone bridge circuit design
provides inherently stable mV outputs over the force range.
Force sensors operate on the principle that the resistance of
silicon-implanted piezoresistors will increase when the
resistors flex under any applied force. The sensor concentrates
force from the application, through the stainless steel ball,
directly to the silicon-sensing element. The amount of
resistance changes in proportion to the amount of force being
applied. This change in circuit resistance results in a
corresponding mV output level change.
