GSS Gear Shift Load Cell

The GSS Series of Miniature Load Cells are designed for the detection and measurement of tension and compression forces in Gear Shift Application. 

During the gear change sequence, the driver moves the gear lever as normal, the GSS Series Load Cell detects the force applied to the gear shift lever. This force is measured by the ECU, then a series of control events take place that allows the gears to mesh with full throttle still applied. 

Typical Applications Include: Aero Struts - Gear Shift - General Testing - Pedal Force - Steering - Suspension 

Features: 

  • Miniature Size
  • 5V or 8-16V Supply
  • ±500N, ±1000N & ±2000N
  • IP67 Sealed 
  • ±1% Accuracy
  • Rugged Construction
GST Gear Lever Load Cell

The GST Series of Gear Lever Load Cells is designed for the detection and measurement of tension and compression forces in Gear Shift Application. 

Installed directly on top of the gear lever, the GST Series Load Cell is fitted with an aluminium or nylon cover. Detection of the direct drivers input force is made when selecting gears. The Load Cell has a pre-amplified signal which is compatible with most ECU's, therefore ensuring simple and reliable clutchless gear change strategy can be performed. 

Typical Applications Include: Gear Shift - General Testing - Steering 

Features: 

  • ±150N
  • 5 to 40V d.c. (less than 20mA)
  • ±0.5% Accuracy
  • Built-In Amplifier 
  • Sequential Gearbox
  • Rugged Construcion
