Optimized for embedded force sensing applications fromdisposable medical devices to durable appliances and exerciseequipment. The FX29 allows design flexibility with mV, amplified,and digital output options.The FX29 incorporates the high reliability Microfused technologyand is offered in ranges from 10lbf to 200lbf (50N to 1000N).Microfused technology provides excellent span and zero stability,outstanding cycle life, superior resolution, high over-rangecapabilities, and an unamplified span sensitivity of 20mV\/V.The FX29 utilizes a two-piece construction of stainless steelmaterials. The combination of a metal injection molded flexure andmicro miniaturized MEMS strain gauges allows flexibility of forcerange options for a lower cost sensor. These improvements overprevious load cell designs give the FX29 more precisedimensional control and better performance.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Features<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 Compact Design<br
