Sensors - Force Sensor

Linear Force Measurement Load Cell
for Noraxon cable and telemetry systems

• Uses Standard Noraxon Plug-In Capability
• Measures pull and push force
• Can be used for static force tests
  with cable and training equipment
• Available in two sizes/ranges

The Inline Force Sensor is a precision load cell allowing measurement of both tension and compression. The sensor has plug-in functionality with the MyoSystem 1400A / L, the TeleMyo System 2400 and the NEW hand-held system MyoTrace 400. The Inline Force Sensor can be used in any of the EMG channels. The built-in amplifier guarantees flexible and easy use. The sensor is available in two sizes / measurement ranges:

• 0-100 lb-F ( 0-444 N)
• 0-500 lb-F (0-2224 N)

The sensor has a predefined measurement setup in all the Noraxon software packages and is operational in a few seconds:

Application Examples

The sensor can be used with any commercial cable training machine. This arrangement allows you to create numerous test positions to test static force in a functional manner. Such test setups can be used to document therapy and training improvements.

The sensor can be integrated
with most cable machines.

A special adapter allows you to attach the sensor to weight stack belts of exercise machines without cutting the belt. The same sensor will work on various machines.
