563FS3A Multi-Axis Sensor

The ANYLOAD 563FS3A is a compact stainless steel tri-axial force sensor designed to simultaneously measure forces in three orthogonal directions — Fx, Fy, and Fz — within a single low-profile load button housing. Constructed from 17-4PH stainless steel, the 563FS3A is built for demanding industrial force measurement applications where multi-axis load data is required in a confined installation envelope. The sensor carries a rated capacity of 40kN and delivers reliable, repeatable performance with less than ±1.0% non-linearity, hysteresis, and repeatability across all three axes.

The 563FS3A features an environmentally sealed IP67 housing suitable for use in wet or washdown environments, with excitation of 10V recommended and a maximum of 15V. The sensor operates across a nominal temperature range of -10°C to 50°C (14°F to 122°F) and provides a safe overload capacity of 150% and a breaking overload of 300% of full scale. Its 1/2-14 NPT port and standard M12 threaded mounting interface simplify integration into test fixtures, structural monitoring systems, and machine frames. A 5-meter cable with color-coded conductors for each axis is included as standard.

Approved for use in hazardous locations, the 563FS3A is available in ATEX, FM, and IECEx certified versions (designated with the “-Ex” suffix), making it suitable for deployment in oil and gas, chemical processing, and other classified environments. The sensor is also CE and RoHS compliant, supporting use across a broad range of regulated industries and international markets.

The 563FS3A is well suited for applications requiring simultaneous multi-axis force analysis, including structural load testing, robotics and automation, materials testing, aerospace ground support equipment, and precision industrial machinery. ANYLOAD supports system integrators and engineers in selecting and configuring the right force measurement solution for their application. Contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
