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 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 small-diameter, cost-efficient, fatigue-resistant 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.

Honeywell’s cost-effective, general purpose, carbon steel, pancake load cells offer a compact design that features exceptional structural capability to withstand extraneous loads, such as torque, bending movements and side loads combined with a high degree of accuracy for general purpose applications.
Designed to measure tension/compression, these load cells have enhanced accuracies up to 0.07 % and have measurement ranges from 5 lb up to 100,000 lb. Fatigue-resistant and fatigue-rated models for use with applications with extremely high cycle counts are available. Need special modifications or a custom design?

Model 3336 Tension/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 tension-compression loads in capacities of 5K, 10K and 20K lbs.
The precision design and manufacture of this versatile transducer style is the result of our experience in the metal working industry and automotive applications.
Model 34 precision miniature load cells measure both tension and compression load forces of 1000 g to 1000 lb. These models are our highest accuracy, rugged miniature load cells. Model 34’s welded, stainless steel construction is designed to eliminate or reduce to a minimum, the effects of off-axis loads. (The internal construction assures excellent long-term stability for ranges 1000 grams and above.) A modification permits this model to be completely welded for underwater applications. The Model 34 tension/compression load cell has female threads attachments. High accuracies of 0.15 % to 0.25 % full scale are achieved. Each bonded strain gage unit is built of welded 17-4 PH stainless steel for additional ruggedness. All load cells with ranges from 1 kg to 10 lb have an electrical balance module in the lead wire (approximately 1 in x .087 in thick). This balance module does not have to be the same temperature as the transducer.
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 pedal pressure sensor mounts directly to the brake pedal with its own mounting clamp. Load applied up to 1/2 inch off center, produces less than a 0.5% error. Standard capacity is 300 lbs. This load cell, which is used for brake pedal force measurements by the automotive industry, finds many production applications. It adapts to any of the pedal or bar operated devices used in all production facilities.
Model 53 load cells are bonded foil strain gage transducers designed for cost efficient production and testing applications (i.e. press calibration). Engineered compression force measurements up to 50K lb., this model achieves a maximum non-linearity of 0.5 % full scale. Precision gaging techniques and a stainless steel construction provides excellent long-term stability and reliability under severe operating conditions. The Model 53 compression-only load cell has an integral load button machined as part of the load cell. The Model 53 must be mounted on a smooth flat surface for proper operation. Three tapped holes are provided for mounting.
The X-Y force sensor is constructed of two strain gage bridges, mounted at 90º, isolated by a flexure system. The complete two-component system, including flexures, is machined from one specially prepared metal billet to provide unusual structure strength and to minimize crosstalk between the two transducers. This unique sensor has excellent linearity characteristics and maximum structure life.
