GC-201 Piezoelectric Force Sensor

Piezoelectric quartz force sensors offer a wide measurement range and high-frequency dynamic force measurement capabilities, enabling the detection of minute forces under high static loads. They can measure forces as small as a few Newtons under static loads of several kilonewtons. 

Since the measurement signal generated by quartz sensors decays over time, they are unsuitable for long-term static measurements. However, short-term or „quasi-static“ measurements are achievable under certain conditions, depending on the signal conditioner used (e.g., a quasi-static charge amplifier). 

For dynamic force testing, quartz force sensors provide unique advantages, making them the ideal choice.
