Edu-Logger Force Logger Sensor

The Edu-Logger Force Logger Sensor measures the mass to weigh relationship. The Edu-Logger Force Logger Sensor studies how different pulley systems affect the effort needed to lift weights.

The Edu-Logger Force Logger Sensor measures push/pull forces and impacts.

Features of The Edu-Logger Force Logger Sensor

• The force sensor is contained in a metal box.
• There is a hook at the botoom of the box that can be connected to various pulling loads.
• A simple bumper (for push/impact measurements) could be made and attached using a bolt, which is placed through a length of plastic tubing.
• The sensor can be hung from a universal laboratory stand via a rod through the hole in its box.
• This sensor can be operated either facing upwards, downwards or at any intermediate (including horizontal) position.
• Sensor zeroing: connect the sensor to a voltage source (USB module, display unit or battery module). To zero the reading, just press the sensor push-button for about 3 seconds.
• The highest barometric pressure is on the sea level.
• Converts the measured parameter into processed value (ºC, ºF, Lux, dB, mA, V, etc.)
• Sends the data in digital form to a viewer unit, any kind of computer or tablet.
• Saves up to 5 experiments in its flash memory.
• Calibration is done by pressing a push-button.
• Changing ranges and gains is done through software.
• Experiments run with or without a computer.
• Saved experiments in the Logger Sensor can be uploaded to a computer at any time.

Benefits of The Edu-Logger Force Logger Sensor
