Description
The LW-2T-20K Wheel Force Transducer is capable of measuring all of the wheel forces and moments on light and heavy duty pickup trucks vans and SUVs. It provides independent output signals for vertical, lateral, and longitudinal forces as well as camber, steer, and torque moments.
High grade stainless steel material and weatherproof sealing combine to provide excellent resistance to corrosion and environmental conditions making it ideal for on-road measurements; it can also be used to monitor and control laboratory tests. Temperature compensation of the wheel force transducer ensures stable output throughout a wide temperature range. In addition, all wires are precisely located to reduce sensitivity to magnetic effects.
The signal conditioning amplifier package mounts on the outboard side of the transducer. The slip ring has a built in quadrature encoder with 512 pulses per revolution that provides 0.18 degrees resolution. When used with the Michigan Scientific coordinate transformation box (LWCT2) provides high level CAN, Ethernet, and Analog outputs. The LWCT2 is field upgradeable via an embedded webpage and can be set up through a web browser.
