FN7080
Multi-components Gear Stick Load Cell
SPECIFICATIONS•

Ranges 200 to 500 N (40 to 100 lbf)

•Multi-components, up to 3 Force channels•

Aluminum body•High adaptability to rod by cylindrical interfaces.

Designed for automotive comfort testing, theFN7080 is installed in place of the original gear knob on
the gear stick and measures the force required to change
gear. Force is measured either in two or three directions.
An adapter coupled with an interface collar allows a simple
and rapid fitting of the FN7080 to the majority of vehicles.
