How can I measure forces greater than 100 lbs?

Question: How can I measure forces greater than 100 lbs?

 

Answer: In order to measure forces above 100 lbs. (up to 1000 lbs.), apply a lower drive voltage and reduce the resistance of the feedback resistor (1kΩ min.) The force ranges of the sensors are based on our electronics.  Please refer to FlexiForce® Specifications. If Using our ELF electronics, there is a feature in the software which allows you to decrease or increase the sensitivity of the sensor.  Refer to your ELF™ manual for details.
