• Maximum excitation 15 VDC
• Temperature effect on output of the load cell is 0.002% R.O/°C

Applications

Load cells are transducers that transform a force, for example, tension, compression or torque into an electrical signal, this is then measured and standardised. Load cells come in a variety of types from S-type, shear beam, strain gauge, beam and compression load cells. Beam type load cells and force sensors are specially designed for low profile platform scales and a variety of other applications where hermetically sealed cells are needed and used in a variety of industries for example
<li>Hopper and silo scale</li>
<li>Tank weighing</li>
<li>Weighing and packing machines</li>
<li>Conversion of mechanical scales</li>
<li>Marine scales</li>
<li>Hybrid scales</li>
<li>Checking the filling level of tanks</li>

How Does a Bending Beam Load Cell Work?

During the measuring, weight acts on the load cells metal spring element and causes elastic deformation. This strain, positive or negative, is then converted into an electrical signal by a strain gauge that is installed on the spring element.
