BPFT3: low-profile pedal force transducer for smaller pedals, 2.2 kN
The BPFT3 is a strain gage transducer sized for the brake pedal of most vehicles with a manual transmission. Fitted on the pedal, it adds minimal height and weight and keeps the shape and feel of the production pedal. The capacity is 500 lbf (2.2 kN), read accurately on and off center. Its four-arm bridge is 350 Ω and its output 1.5 mV/V nominal, at up to 10 V DC or AC rms; non-linearity is 0.5 % and hysteresis 0.1 % of full scale. The operating range is −40 to 149 °C, the weight 300 g and the cable 3.05 m.
Once the rubber pad is off the pedal, a single retaining bolt is tightened to the padless pedal. The plate measures 69.0 × 56.3 mm (2.72 × 2.22 in) and needs a pedal at least 54.0 mm (2.13 in) wide. Its clamp sets cover the same pedal heights as the BPFT2: 38.1 to 50.8 mm standard, 50.8 to 76.2 mm extended.
Paired with the Transducer Display Module (TDM), it quickly verifies brake loads. Its output is 1.5 mV/V; the BPFT2, for pedals at least 72.4 mm wide, gives 2.75 mV/V.
