VBOX Door Handle Force Sensor
RLACS344
●Measures activation force and change in force on door handles and operating mechanisms
●Voltage output proportional to applied force
●User-definable Toperate, Tlatch and Topen thresholds for Euro NCAP Dooring assessment
●Connects directly to the analogue voltage inputs of your data acquisition system
●Replaceable sensor pad
●Instant results with VBOX Test Suite
Overview
The VBOX Door Handle Force Sensor (RLACS344) accurately measures both the activation force and the change in force applied to vehicle door handles and operating mechanisms.
This highly sensitive sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the applied force, providing valuable data for the Euro NCAP 'Dooring' assessment. The measured force can be mapped directly to user-defined test requirements such as Toperate, Tlatch and Topen.

Key Features
●Precise force measurement
Voltage output directly proportional to the applied force for accurate quantitative analysis of door handle operation.
●User-definable thresholds
Define critical force thresholds for detailed Dooring analysis:
Toperate: force required to move the door handle lever up to the point of Tlatch
Tlatch: force at which the door latch begins to disengage
Topen: force at which the door fully opens
●Simple integration
Easy placement on door handles or operating mechanisms, with straightforward connection to the analogue voltage inputs of your data acquisition system.
●Robust and reliable
Built for the demands of automotive testing with consistent, repeatable results. The sensor pad is replaceable for quick swaps if damaged.
●Real-time feedback
Instant results when used with VBOX Test Suite.

Applications
●Door handle activation and force measurement for Euro NCAP Dooring assessments
●Euro NCAP and UNECE compliance testing
