Instructions for Use:

1. Preparation:

   • Ensure the surface where the FSR12.5 will be mounted is clean and free of debris.
   • Peel off the protective film from the adhesive backing.

2. Mounting:

   • Place the FSR12.5 on the desired location and press firmly to ensure good adhesion.
   • Avoid applying excessive force during mounting to prevent damage to the sensor.

3. Wiring:

   • Connect the leads to your circuit. The leads are typically tinned copper wires with a cross-sectional area of 0.3 mm2.
   • Ensure the connections are secure and insulated to prevent short circuits.

4. Calibration:

   • Calibrate the FSR12.5 by applying known forces and measuring the corresponding resistance values.
   • Use these values to create a lookup table or calibration curve for accurate force measurements.

5. Operation:

   • Apply force to the sensor within the operating range (0.1 N to 10 N).
   • Monitor the resistance change to determine the applied force.
   • Note that the resistance decreases as the applied force increases.

6. Maintenance:

   • Avoid exposing the FSR12.5 to harsh chemicals or environments outside its operating temperature range.
   • Regularly inspect the sensor for signs of wear or damage, and replace if necessary.

7. Storage:

   • Store the FSR12.5 in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
   • If not in use, keep the protective film on the adhesive backing to prevent contamination.
