Main Specifications
Types, lengths and codes of lead-wire cables pre-attached to KFGS
*Notes on pre-attached lead-wire cables
•In the case of a biaxial gage and triaxial gage, 2-wire cables are color-coded with red, white and green stripes for 0°, 90° and 45°, respectively and 3-wire cables, with red, yellow and blue stripes for 0°, 90°and 45°, respectively. The letter code is S in common.
*In the case of D9, D19 and D39 type, 2 polyester-coated copper wires (10 cm) + the specified lead-wire cable.
*1 The wire section of R-type is sandwiched or wrapped with the glass-cloth tape for insulation and reinforcement.
How to order
When ordering, specify the model of the strain gage and the code of the lead-wire cable with a space in between.
E.g.
KFGS-5-120-C1-11 With 2 polyester-coated copper wires 15 cm long
→KFGS-5-120-C1-11 N15C2
KFGS-5-120-C1-11 With a vinyl-coated flat 2-wire cable 5 m long
→KFGS-5-120-C1-11 L5M2R
KFGS-5-120-D17-11 With a vinyl-coated flat 3-wire cable 5 m long
→KFGS-5-120-D17-11 L5M3S
KFGS-5-120-C1-11 With a mid-temperature 3-wire cable 5 m long
→KFGS-5-120-C1-11 R5M3
KFGS-5-120-D17-11 With a mid-temperature 2-wire cable 5 m long
→KFGS-5-120-D17-11 R5M2
If no lead-wire cable code is suffixed, the gage is delivered with gage leads only.
