Model 3632 Compression Donut Load Cell features a smooth thru-hole design for use in applications which require the load structure to pass through the cell. The hollow load cells are available for compression only loads in capacities of 25K, 50K and 100K lbs. For optimum performance, this load cell must be mounted between load surfaces which are flat and parallel.
The Model RGM In-Line load cells are high quality, stainless steel, rugged load cells capable of withstanding significant off-axis loads, making them an ideal choice for in-line compression measurement or tension measurement where side loading cannot be completely controlled. The flexible mounting options make applications easier to implement, and the all stainless steel, hermetic construction is well suited to corrosive and very high humidity environments.
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.
Model TH Donut Shaped Load Cell features a smooth thru-hole design for use in applications which require the load structure to pass through the cell. Such applications include bolt force measurement, post or leg mount, and rolling mill systems. Load ranges as low as 15,000 pounds and as great as 200,000 pounds can be measured within a maximum full scale non-linearity of ±0.25. This model is used in compression applications. For optimum performance, this load cell must be mounted between load surfaces which are flat and parallel. The Model TH Donut Shaped Load Cell is designed to provide the customer with an internal hole diameter which is large relative to the outside diameter. The Model TH is a small size, high capacity load cell.
The compact Model MPB Load Cells are designed for applications requiring high capacity yet where space restrictions require that the cell be small in size. The Model MPB will measure compression load forces in ranges between 15,000 to 2,000,000 pounds.
Applications include impact testing and mine shaft roof simulations. The diameter of these load cells range between 1.25 in and 10 in while the height ranges between approximately 0.63 in and 14 in depending on the load range desired.
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 Model 102 load cells combines both a compact form and high precision to offer a superior tension force transducer. The one-piece S-shaped design achieves a maximum non-linearity of 0.02 % full scale for load ranges from 20 kg to 1000 kg. Additional features include minimal temperature effects on zero and span of 0.002 %/°C and 0.002 %/°C, respectively.
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.
