Honeywell / Model 3161 / Tension/Compression In-Line Load Cell

Model RF, with female threads, is a high output rod end load cell designed to be mounted inline to the load axis to measure tension. The outputs for these load cells are ±5 Vdc or 10 Vdc, or
4 mA to 20 mA (two wire) all calibrated in tension. The mounting thread configurations and the all welded stainless steel construction make these tension load cells ideal for a variety of rugged field applications as well as in the laboratory.
The optional high output signal offers resistance to electrical noise as well as additional signal resolution. Additional options include an internal buffered shunt calibration circuit for ease of setup with an associated indicator, and a variety of thread selections, including metric sizes.

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.

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 3129-121 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.
