Design and Principle of Operation
The SlimLine quartz force link consists of a SlimLine sensor
mounted under preload between a preloading bolt and a
nut.
This preload is required for measuring tensile forces.
Fig. 1: Design of Sensor
The SlimLine sensor is mounted with insulation to largely
avoid ground loop problems.
The force link is rust-resistant and the tightly welded con-
struction and integral cable of the sensor provide it with
splashproof protection.
