High Reliability Design for OEM, Appliance andMedical Applications
10 – 200 lbf Ranges
Compact Coin Cell Package
Anti-Rotation Mounting Features
CE Compliance

The FX19 units are intended for OEM use inlaboratory, hospital or consumer product applications,establishing a breakthrough price/performance value forcompression load cells. The FX19 is a 1% load cell device
with full scale ranges of 10, 25, 50 or 100 and 200lbf
compression. This new, low-cost technology enables force
sensing in a whole new class of "smart" consumer andmedical products.
MEAS’ proprietary Microfused™ technology,
derived from demanding aerospace applications, employs
micro-machined piezoresistive strain gages fused with hightemperature glass to a high performance stainless steel
force measuring flexure. Microfused™ technology
eliminates age-sensitive organic epoxies used in traditionalload cell designs, providing excellent long term span andzero stability. Operating at very low strains, Microfused™
technology provides an essentially unlimited cycle life
expectancy, superior resolution, high over-range
capabilities and a ratiometric span of 20mV/V. The
combination of stamped flexures and micro miniaturizedMEMs strain gages permits low costs to be achieved in highvolume OEM applications ranging from disposable medical
devices to durable appliances and exercise equipment.
