Description

The Pro-Range GML642 Force Washer Sensor utilizes a high-quality stainless steel strain gauge element configured in a full Wheatstone bridge. This design translates applied axial force into a proportional millivolt-per-volt (mV/V) output signal, ensuring high linearity and repeatability for critical force measurement applications.

Engineered for durability, the sensor’s IP66 enclosure protects the internal circuitry from dust ingress and water jets, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. Its compact, circular form factor allows for direct integration into mechanical assemblies, bolted joints, and press fittings where space is constrained, providing reliable force data for process control and safety monitoring.

Key Features

  • Manufactured from durable SUS304 stainless steel for long-term stability and corrosion resistance.
  • High-accuracy strain gauge technology delivers a comprehensive error of ≤ ±0.5% of Full Scale (F.S.).
  • Features a customizable inner hole diameter to accommodate various bolt sizes and mounting requirements.
  • Designed with high overload resistance to withstand accidental force spikes beyond the rated capacity.
  • Stable performance across a broad -20°C to +80°C temperature range, minimizing thermal drift.
  • IP66 protection rating ensures reliable operation in environments with dust and directed water spray.
  • Provides a standard 1.5 mV/V output, compatible with most industrial amplifiers and readout instruments.

Applications

  • Bolt tension monitoring and pre-load measurement in critical structural assemblies.
  • Force feedback and control in industrial presses, clamps, and molding machines.
  • Load monitoring on mechanical linkages, axles, and support structures within confined spaces.
  • Research and development testing for material strength and component fatigue analysis.
  • Integration into custom weighing systems for process hoppers, silos, or platform scales.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the recommended excitation voltage for this GML642 force sensor?

The sensor is designed for use with a 9 to 15 VDC supply voltage. A stable, regulated power source within this range is recommended to ensure accurate output signal generation and minimize measurement error due to voltage fluctuations.

How do I connect and read the signal from this washer load cell?

The sensor provides a 1.5 mV/V analog output via a 4-wire cable (typically Excitation+, Excitation-, Signal+, Signal-). You must connect it to a compatible signal conditioner or amplifier module that provides the excitation voltage and converts the small mV signal into a standard 0-5V, 0-10V, or 4-20mA output for your PLC, data logger, or microcontroller.

Can this sensor be used for dynamic or impact force measurements?

While it has high overload resistance, the GML642 is primarily designed for static or quasi-static force measurement. For high-frequency dynamic or impact force applications, the system's total bandwidth (sensor and signal conditioner) must be evaluated to ensure accurate signal capture.

Is calibration required, and can the inner hole be customized?

The sensor comes pre-calibrated from the factory. For critical applications, field verification against a known force standard is recommended. Yes, the inner hole diameter can be customized; contact the manufacturer or supplier with your specific bolt size or mounting requirements.
