burster burster 8524
burster tension and compression force sensor, series 8524, ranges from 500 N to 200 kN.
The 8524 series is a precision burster force sensor for measuring tension and compression, available in measuring ranges from 0...±500 N up to 0...±200 kN. The output signal is 1.5 mV/V, and the protection class is IP65 for ranges up to and including 10 kN and IP67 for ranges from 20 kN upwards. The complete commercial code of a sensor, for example 8524-6100, contains a suffix that indicates the measuring range and the construction variant.
From the 8524 series we bring in new sensors on order through suppliers in the European Union, within 1–4 weeks. To replace an existing sensor, the customer sends the complete code from the device label or, if it is missing, the measuring range required and the type of load (tension, compression or both); we confirm the suitable variant from the manufacturer's documentation before quoting.
Models and codes
| Code | Note |
|---|---|
| 8524 (0...±500 N) | the minimum measuring range of the series. |
| 8524 (0...±1 kN) | measuring range from the range of the series. |
| 8524 (0...±5 kN) | measuring range from the range of the series. |
| 8524 (0...±20 kN) | threshold from which the protection class becomes IP67. |
| 8524 (0...±100 kN) | measuring range from the range of the series. |
| 8524 (0...±200 kN) | the maximum measuring range of the series. |

Frequently asked questions
What information is needed for a quotation on the 8524 series?
The complete code from the sensor label, for example 8524-6100, or, if it is missing, the desired measuring range and the type of load: tension, compression or both. These data allow the correct variant to be identified in the manufacturer's documentation before quoting.
Can the 8524 series sensors measure both tension and compression?
Yes, the series is built for measuring static, quasi-static and dynamic tension and compression forces. The exact range depends on the variant ordered, from 500 N up to 200 kN, according to the manufacturer's documentation.
The exact correspondence between the commercial code suffix and the measuring range is established from the sensor label or from the manufacturer's documentation.
