It is designed for high-end watchmaking, electronics, and cosmetics applications where the forces involved range from a few grams to several hundred grams.<br \/>\nThe SEJ-Z is designed for medium loads (10 N to 2,000 N) and features a mechanical stop. This is the versatile solution for laboratories, test benches, and quality control stations where the risk of overload is a real concern.<br \/>\nThe SEJ covers high loads (15 daN to 3,000 daN) without a mechanical stop, offering superior accuracy (0.02% EM vs. 0.05% PE for the SEJ-Z). It is recommended for high-precision metrological applications where the risk of overload is controlled.<\/p>\n<div class='content-column one_half'><h3><span style=\"color: #215876;\"><strong>SEJ-Z Benefits<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #215876;\"><span style=\"color: #215876;\">Tension &#038; compression<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #215876;\"><span style=\"color: #215876;\">Capacity from 10 N to 2000 N<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #215876;\"><span style=\"color: #215876;\">Mechanical stop<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #215876;\">IP 50 Protection class<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/div>\n<div class='content-column one_half last_column'><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7975 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Capteurdeforce-300x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\"><\/div><div class='clear_column'><\/div>\n<h3>Options<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Rings and hooks<\/li>\n<li>Rod ends<\/li>\n<li>Load button<\/li>\n<li>Longer length for cable<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5471 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Plan-SEJ-Z.png\" alt=\"SEJ-Z-map\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Plan-SEJ-Z.png 700w, https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Plan-SEJ-Z-480x343.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 700px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For use with:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/en\/product\/sensor-measurement-xa\/\">The XA-m measurement console<\/a> \u2014 Recommended console for reading and archiving the values measured by the SEJ-Z.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/en\/product\/low-load-force-transducer\/\">The Mini SEJ-Z Low-Load Force Sensor<\/a> \u2014 Ultra-low-capacity versions (1 to 5 N) with a mechanical stop.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/en\/product\/high-precision-force-sensor\/\">The high-precision SEJ force sensor<\/a> \u2014 High-capacity version (15 to 3,000 daN) without a stop, for precision metrology.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/en\/calibration-metrology\/\">Our Calibration Service<\/a> \u2014 Periodic calibration of the SEJ-Z in accordance with ISO 17025 methods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<blockquote><p>Loadcell with mechanical stop<br \/>\nCapacity from 10 N to 2000 N<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The SEJ-Z mechanical stop force sensor is a high-precision S-beam load cell designed to measure tensile and compressive forces in the range of 10 N to 2000 N.<\/p>\n<p>Its key feature is its built-in mechanical stop, which protects the sensing element from accidental overloads\u2014a passive protection mechanism that operates without electronics and with no response time, mechanically limiting the sensor\u2019s deflection when the capacity is exceeded.<\/p>\n<p>The allowable overloads vary by model: up to 1 kN for the 10\u2013100 N models, 2 kN for the 200 N model, 5 kN for the 500 N model, and 10 kN for the 1,000 and 2,000 N models\u2014representing safety factors ranging from 5 to 100 times the rated capacity.
