Honeywell Model LC Digital Force Indicator
Honeywell / Model LC / Digital Force Indicator
The Model LC digital force indicator is a highly portable force measurement device. With its 9 V battery supply and compact size the indicator can easily be carried to remote locations to perform force measurement calibrations. The unit can measure compression forces up to 50,000 lbs.
The peak capture feature allows the highest force reading taken to be displayed with the push of a button. The remote location of the load sensor minimizes the chance of damage to the electronic body of the gauge. The stainless steel construction of the sensor and the indicator makes them often resistant to the occasional mishandling than can occur in the field. Optional handles are available for the load cell and gauge.
Each unit has a membrane face with raised buttons and tactile feedback for setup and operation. The high, low, and clear buttons are easily accessible on this front membrane. Zero adjustment and zero offset/tare functions are standard on each unit. Calibration and setup parameters are stored on a memory chip to protect from loss even when power is interrupted. Unauthorized set ups and calibrations are also blocked with internal security. Various combinations of the front panel buttons can be de-activated.
The Model 3156 fatigue-resistant load cells are extremely resistant to extraneous bending and side loading forces. The structure virtually eliminates bending strains at the strain gage, minimizing the primary cause of load cell failure. Dual bridge option available for feedback control and redundancy.
The Model 3130-131 fatigue-resistant load cells are extremely resistant to extraneous bending and side loading forces. The structure virtually eliminates bending strains at the strain gage, minimizing the primary cause of load cell failure. Dual bridge option available for feedback control and redundancy.
The small-diameter, cost-efficient load cells are designed to be used in applications that require an ability to mount in an existing system with restricted working area. They are commonly used in fluid power transfer systems. Their low cost and ease of mounting allow simultaneous testing of multi-element systems.
They may be directly attached to the piston rod of a hydraulic cylinder. Side-mounted cable connectors allow cable assemblies to be supported without affecting movement of the cell during tension or compression loading.
Model 11 (tension/compression) subminiature load cell is designed to measure load ranges from 150 g to 1000 lb. With subminiature dimensions, including diameters from .50 in to 0.75 in and height of 0.38 in, these units are easily incorporated into systems having limited space. The model achieves a non-linearity and hysteresis of 0.5 % full scale respectively and a frequency response of up to 58 kHz. A balance module is included in the load cell’s lead wire cable for zero balance, and should not be removed.
The Model D Donut Shaped Load Cell features a smooth thru-hole design often ideal for applications which require the load structure to pass directly through the cell. Such applications include bolt force measurements, clamping forces, and monitoring overloads. Load ranges as low as 150 grams and as great as 30,000 pounds can be measured within a maximum full scale non-linearity and hysteresis of ±0.5 % F.S., respectively. These models are used in compression applications and are available in multiple hole and frame sizes. For optimum performance, these cells must be mounted between load surfaces which are flat and parallel. The Model D miniature load cell is designed to have a minimum thickness.
These general purpose designs have exceptional structural capability to withstand extraneous loads, such as torque, bending moments, and side loads. Available in capacities of 25 lb to 300 lb, they offer maximum performance and enhanced accuracy. Minimum deflection and compactness make these general-purpose load cells easy to install and use.
The Model 3127 fatigue-resistant load cells are extremely resistant to extraneous bending and side loading forces. The structure virtually eliminates bending strains at the strain gage, minimizing the primary cause of load cell failure. Dual bridge option available for feedback control and redundancy.
Designed for general purpose use in demanding applications in automotive, aerospace, and military applications. Some advantages of these tension/compression load cells include compact size, high accuracy, and cost efficiency. The 3140-P has smaller maximum off-center load and moment error than the standard 3140 Series.
