number of current sensor problems and limitations such


as installation ease, size, load limit, location and operating
temperature conditions. In addition, the Gozinta has
unchallenged application versatility and a wide range of
machines, devices or structures can use Gozinta sensors
as a cost-effective, accurate solution to sensing needs.
The Gozinta sensor is mounted into the machine or
structure and the sensors output can be calibrated to
meet the system needs.
As a result, the maximum load of the system is
determined by the structure, rather than by the sensor.
Sensitivity to thermal effects is minimal due to the
Gozintas unique patented design.

DESCRIPTION
An innovative approach to sensor design combined
with proven strain gage technology has resulted in a
small, accurate stainless steel sensor with wide-ranging
application possibilities. The Gozinta overcomes a

The Gozinta is configured with a full bridge circuit for


low non-linearity, hysteresis and non-repeatability. A
certain degree of care should be taken when positioning
or locating the sensor in a structure. In addition, the
number of sensors used in a structure, the amount of
strain an individual Gozinta senses, and the material of
the structure will affect the overall accuracy. Installation
is optimized through the use of specific installation tools,
supported by extensive application notes.
