The sensors DK0 are especially designed for applications in smallest room (diameter and height) where relatively large forces must be measured reliably.The compression force load cell ofthe DK0 series consists primarily of a singlesensor element, designed and optimizedwith the finite element analysis.Strain gauges applied to the active areasof the sensor body surface measure the force-proportional strains.A downstream measuring amplifier from the HAEHNE -Program processes the measuring signals and supplies the strain gaugefull bridge.
