Isometric Force Transducers

Isometric Force Transducers.

We offer a wide choice of Isometric Force Transducers to suit most applications and budgets.  Whether you need a general purpose, multi-range force transducer or a specific force range, we have the transducer for you.

Applications: in vitro pharmacology

For in vitro pharmacology we offer a variety of transducers.  For Tissue Bath applications including Aortic ring preparations, our most popular transducer the Biopac TSD125 series (Illustrated above on the right).  Available in the following specifications:

Tension Adjustment.

For fine tension adjustments, see the new HDW100A micropositioner (below).  The HDW100A has scales in both imperial and metric units.  All mounting holes are machined with 'keyways' to ensure stable, secure positioning.
