Vishay’s Model 178 extensometer from Instrotech is a load sensor designed for force measurement on any load-bearing structure. This extensometer provides the total solution for weighing, level control, stress and fatigue monitoring. The design also allows multiple sensors to be permanently mounted for more complex stress profiling and analysis.

This extensometer provides the solution for non-intrusive level measurements for materials that are subject to uneven build-up, bridging, or sidewall collection. Also, liquids or wetted materials that are not suited for direct contact level measurement are an ideal application for the device. Its design makes it ideal for retrofitting to existing structures without compromise of the integrity of the vessel or structure.

It can be used in tank weighing or level systems, agricultural equipment, rolling mill sensing, moment sensing, structural loading measurements and bridge structures.
