Benefit from the U2B’s maturity and long-life technology.
U2B force sensor: tried and tested sensor for tensile and compressive force
The proven U2B force sensor is a diaphragm transducer and is, therefore, particularly suitable for fast measurements. The sensor has a bending moment compensation to ensure that you get reliable results even if bending or lateral forces occur in the application. As a strain gauge sensor, the U2B measures both static and dynamic forces.
The U2B series has been further improved: in addition to the familiar configurations, the sensor is now also available with an integrated amplifier with current or voltage output. The dimensions remain unchanged.
- HBM accuracy class: up to 0.1 (0.5 kN: 0.2)
- Capacities: 0.5 kN to 200 kN
Practice-oriented
- High degree of protection (IP67) and stainless steel
- Shock and EMC tested in compliance with international standards
- The versions with and without electronics have the same compact dimensions

Adaptable and cost-effective
- Configurable with plugs, TEDS and different cable lengths
- Available with an integrated measuring amplifier; in this case, calibrated as a measurement chain
- Durable quality, proven design

Save on cost: sensor configuration at HBK, plug and measure at the point of use! Now also available with an integrated measurement amplifier.
Small displacement, excellent dynamics
- Little deformation under load
- High stiffness ensures excellent dynamic behaviour
- Fast sensor for fast processes – also with integrated electronics

Solve both static and dynamic measurement tasks using the U2B.

New: U2B optionally available with an integrated amplifier
The U2B is now optionally available with a current or voltage output, which does not affect its dynamics nor its metrological properties
The amplifier is matched to the sensor. This offers the following advantages:
![]() | Fast | With a bandwidth of 2 kHz, the amplifiers are also ideally suited for fast processes. |
![]() | Reliable | The active sensor meets the same stringent requirements for shock and vibration resistance as the version without an amplifier. |
![]() | Ambient conditions | The amplifier is robust in all fields of application and is optimally suitable for industrial applications due to its IP67 degree of protection, and the use of exclusively stainless materials. |
![]() | Calibration | The amplifier converts the force signal (N) into a current or voltage signal (mA or V). Calibration certificates in compliance with DKD R3-3 or ISO376 are also available for the U2B with a measurement amplifier. |
![]() | Accuracy | Both versions, with and without an integrated amplifier, have the same accuracy class. |
