Description

Load pins are used for static and dynamic measuring tasks as replacements for non-measuring bolts. They are used to determine tension and/or compression forces.

Load pins of this series are mainly used in hoists and crane systems. They also serve as reliable sensors in industrial weighing technology as well as in the field of production automation, mechanical and plant engineering, where they are used in particular in pulleys, cable winches, fork or roller bearings. The load pins have also proven themselves in the chemical and petrochemical industries.

The corresponding technical and regional approvals of these force transducers are, of course, available as options.

Model F5301 and F53C1 load pins are made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant 1.4542 stainless steel, the properties of which are particularly well-suited to the application areas of the load pins.

As output signals, the common active current and voltage outputs are available (4 … 20 mA, 0 … 10 V).
Redundant output signals and CANopen® protocols are also possible.
