Force Sensor (High Resolution) – PASPORT

Product Code: PS-2189

Description

The PASPORT High Resolution Force Sensor offers a higher resolution than the PS-2104. It features a variable over-sampling rate that reduces measurement noise at lower sampling rates. The digital design minimizes drift, ensuring that the tare holds for hours. You can use this force sensor as a pan balance for long-term experiments, such as investigating the evaporation of liquids, like alcohol or liquid nitrogen, and the sublimation of dry ice.


Features

  • 0.002 N resolution
  • Dynamic over-sampling
  • Force overload protection up to 75 N
  • Includes a receiver and thumbscrew for mounting
  • Mounts to PASCO dynamics carts

Applications

  • Buoyant force
  • Force exerted by an oscillating mass
  • Force during elastic and inelastic collisions
  • Centripetal force acting on a rotating object
  • Force of a swinging pendulum
  • Newton’s Third Law, action and reaction forces
  • Forces associated with static equilibrium
