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
