RS PRO Load Cell

RS PRO Compression and Tension Load Cell

RS PRO introduces the RS PRO compression and tension load cell. This load cell is made from stainless steel to ensure durability and long life for your product. This compression load cell was designed by RS PRO with the ability to measure both compression force and pull force. This load cell has been designed to be a miniature load cell with the highest accuracy with a welded, stainless steel rugged construction to eliminate or reduce to a minimum the effects of off-axis loads.

Features and Benefits

• This load cell has a range of load capacities from 1 KG to 500 KG perfect for a variety of needs


• Low profile load cell with its small design does not take up too much room or be cumbersome in your workplace


• Accuracy class of C3 which has been classified and tested per OIML R60 load cell complies with requirements specified exactly for a multitude of factors that are critical to the quality of the measurement results


• The load cell has an operating temperature of -20°C to 80°C making if perfect for a wide range of environments


• This loadcell is made from stainless steel to ensure a tough and durable product


• Protection class of IP66 meaning your load cell is dust-resistant


• The load cell has a non-linearity of 0.3%R.O


• Maximum excitation 10 VDC


• Temperature effect on output of the load cell is 0.1% R.O/°C


• A modification permit allows this cell to be completely welded for underwater applications

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. Compression and tension load cells are specially designed to be easily incorporated into systems with limited space. Load cells are used in a variety of applications including:

• Automotive press-fit


• Automated assembly


• 3C products testing


• New energy product assembly


• Medical testing


• Hopper Scales


• Weighing Scales


• Mold assembly


• Industrial testing


• Insertion Force test instruments
