The FSG15N1A from Honey well are microswitch force sensors. This force sensor provides precise, reliable force sensing performance in a compact commercial grade package. The sensor features a proven sensing technology that utilizes a specialized piezoresistive micro machined silicon sensing element. The low power, unamplified, non-compensated wheatstone bridge circuit design provides inherently stable mV outputs over the 1,500 gram force range. The force sensor operates on the principle that the resistance of silicon implanted piezoresistors will increase when the resistors flex under an applied force. The sensor concentrates force from the application through the stainless steel plunger directly to the silicon sensing element. The amount of resistance changes in proportion to the amount of force being applied. This change in circuit resistance results in a corresponding mV output level.
