Structure and principle of operation

The CFT force transducers operate in accordance with the piezoelectric
principle.
Compressive forces are transmitted to measuring elements sensitive to force
via pre‐stressed mounting bases. These separate the electrical charges in
proportion to the force displacement. A charge amplifier then converts these
electrical charges to an analog voltage signal.
Force is applied via the upper/lower mounting surface. Depending on the
measuring range, the transducer can be connected to the customer side load
application by a central internal thread or by four flange threads.
Measurement follows the piezoelectric principle of measurement, with
extreme rigidity (see nominal (rated) displacement in the specifications).
The force transducer is hermetically welded. Compressive force generates
negative electric charge.
