U2B force sensor: tried and tested sensor for tensile and compressive force

The proven U2B force sensor is a diaphragm transducer and is, therefore, particularly suitable for fast measurements. The sensor has a bending moment compensation to ensure that you get reliable results even if bending or lateral forces occur in the application. As a strain gauge sensor, the U2B measures both static and dynamic forces.

The U2B series has been further improved: In addition to the familiar configurations, the sensor is now also available with an integrated amplifier with current or voltage output. The dimensions remain unchanged.

HBK accuracy class: up to 0.1 (0.5 kN: 0.2)
Capacities: 0.5 kN to 200 kN
Output: mV/V (passive), 0...10 V or 4...20 mA

Practice-oriented

High degree of protection (IP67) and stainless steel design
Shock and EMC tested in compliance with international standards
The versions with and without electronics have the same compact dimensions

Benefit from the U2B’s maturity and long-life technology.

Adaptable and cost-effective

Configurable with plugs, TEDS and different cable lengths
Available with an integrated amplifier; in this case, calibrated as a measurement chain
Durable quality, proven design

Save on cost: sensor configuration at HBK, plug and measure at the point of use! Now also available with an integrated measurement amplifier.

Small displacement, excellent dynamics

Little deformation under load
High stiffness ensures excellent dynamic behaviour
Fast sensor for fast processes – also with integrated electronics, but measures also static forces

Solve both static and dynamic measurement tasks using the U2B.
