About this category
WIKA Sensor Technology specialty force sensors handle the loads a standard load cell cannot reach. Hydraulic transducers read force directly on a gauge with no power supply anywhere — 160 N to 6,000 kN, including the geotechnical rings that live on anchor heads for years; wire-rope tension cells clamp onto an installed rope without opening it, retrofitting crane overload protection in an afternoon; embedded strain sensors bolt or press into your own structure and make the machine member the transducer; and the XLWP pillow-block cell reads a live shaft’s force through its own bearing block. Pick by what the load path allows — Prater Technical works with you to spec the right WIKA-ST specialty force sensor.
