Impact Sensor
Polyimide film tape covers the cap surface to reduce high
frequency ringing associated with metal-to-metal impacts.
Internal mounting holes with uniform 10-32 threads are
prepared on each end of the sensor in the smaller models. Two
Model 081B05-mounting studs (M081B05 for metric
installation) are supplied. Larger ICP® Models 200C20 and
200C50, as well as charge mode model 210B50, have ¼-28
mounting provisions and are supplied with ¼-28 stud both ends
as well as a 1/4-28 to M6x1.0 for metric mounting.
Versions offering full-scale measurement ranges of 10 lb to
5000 lb compression (45 to 22kN) tension are available. For
higher ranges, consider the dedicated ring, link, or impact style
sensor configurations.
Applications include drop testing, machinery studies, punching
and forming operations, tensile testing, fatigue testing, fracture
analysis, and materials testing.
RINGS
Series 201B to 207C Ring Sensors are designed to measure
compression forces from a fraction of a lb(N) to 100,000 lbs
(to 444.8k N).
Each sensor is provided with a calibration certificate reflecting
the sensitivity of the sensor when calibrated with a PCB
supplied Beryllium Copper (BeCU)mounting stud. In the event
a customer is going to install the sensor in a fixture without a
mounting stud or with a stud of a stiffer material than the
supplied BeCu stud, the sensor sensitivity will be slightly
different.

preload requirements.

Possible Installation Methods
GENERAL PURPOSE - RADIAL
Model 208C01-C05 General Purpose Sensors are designed to
measure compression and impact forces from a fraction of a
lb(N) to 5,000 lbs (to 22.24 kN). Tension forces can be
measured to 500 lbs (2.224 kN). Model 084A03, a supplied
convex, stainless steel cap with integral 10-32 mounting stud,
converts this tension/compression model to a sensor capable of
impact measurements. Polyimide film tape covers the cap
surface to reduce high frequency ringing associated with metal-
to-metal impacts.
GENERAL PURPOSE - AXIAL
Models 208A11-A15 Axial Sensors provide performance and
specifications similar to the Model 208C Sensors. These
sensors are designed primarily to measure compression and
impact forces from a few pounds(N) to 5,000 lbs (to 22.24 kN).
Tensile forces can be measured to 500 lbs (2.224 kN). The 10-
32 axial electrical connector orientation associated with these
sensors makes them ideal for installations where radial space is
restricted or where physical connector damage may occur due
to the nature of the specific application. The M7 x 0.75-6g
mounting threads (all models) may be installed directly into a
test structure so that the 10-32 electrical connector exits from
the opposite side of the mounting fixture. This helps prevent
potential damage during drop test applications. This version
also uses the Model 084A03 cap for impact measurements.
