The force sensor KM 26 is a membrane-type force sensor with small dimensions.

It is suitable for measuring compressive forces. The force sensor is fitted into a flat recess and if required, fixed in place with adhesive. There is a spherical cap of radius 40 mm provided for the force transmission.

The method of protection is IP 67.

As against force sensors of the KD (double-beam) series, lateral forces result in a measurement error.

Therefore, the force transmission must be centric and free of lateral forces.
