The Bosch Rexroth FORCE SENSOR FS-3-03-1 (R156623001) is a high-quality force sensor designed for integration with the Smart Function Kit for pressing applications. Utilizing strain gauge technology, this sensor is capable of measuring compressive forces as well as low traction forces with exceptional accuracy and long-term stability. Constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, it ensures durability and reliability in various operational environments. The FS-3-03-1 has a nominal rating and features a minimal temperature drift at the zero point of the measuring range per Kelvin, ensuring precision across its operating temperature range of -20°C to 80°C. The traction force measuring range and compressive force measuring range are specifically tailored for use with electromechanical cylinders (EMC), allowing easy mounting directly at the EMC piston rod. With a compensated temperature maximum and minimum, relative creeping of the measuring range is kept to a negligible 0.1%. The power supply voltage requirements range from a minimum to maximum value, accommodating standard industrial power supplies. The force sensor's outer diameter, size SW, size H1, and size H2 are provided to ensure compatibility with system designs. The bandwidth of this sensor reaches up to 5 kHz with a specified tolerance, making it suitable for dynamic applications where rapid force changes need to be monitored. It offers an output signal within a certain voltage range with minimal tolerance, ensuring predictable performance. The nonlinearity of the measuring range is kept low, highlighting the sensor's precision capabilities. For secure installation, the specified tightening torque must be adhered to. The FS-3-03-1 comes equipped with an M12 4-pin plug connection and meets protection class IP67 standards against dust and water ingress. Its hysteresis and output signal tolerances are defined for consistent performance over time. Weighing only 0.3 kg with a nominal size that fits compact spaces, this Bosch Rexroth force sensor is optimal for applications requiring precise force measurements in demanding industrial settings where space may be limited but robustness cannot be compromised.
