Often the mandatory basic components i e.
Load cell shear beam type.
The shear beam capacities are from 100kg to 50t.
Load cells from the best manufacturers around the world.
Low profile floor scales tank hopper bag weighing force tension measurement pallet scale industrial automation 30310 ss stainless stell version is suitable for hygienic applications like food dairy pharma industries for corrosive applications like chemical industries.
Shear beam load cells in aluminium steel and stainless steel.
Shear beam load cells single point load cells compression canister load cells s type load cells double ended beam load cells.
There are several types of strain gauge load cells.
The single ended shear beam is designed for low profile scale and process applications.
The beam type load cell family sometimes known as a bending load cell tend to be the most commonly used due to the variety of available options.
Shear beam load cell shear force load cell capacity.
Available with 0 03 linearity in capacities from 100 to 30 000 lbf.
In a load cell the resistors are replaced with strain gauges and arranged in alternating tension and compression formation.
When force is exerted on the load cell the structure and resistance of the strain gauges changes and is measured.
From the resulting data can be easily determined using the equation above.
Double ended shear beam double ended shear beam load cells are an excellent option for industrial applications such as floor scales and heavy duty weighing scales for trucks vessels and tanks.
A universal load cell for bigger industrial applications.
Stainless steel beam load cell with overload stops lc501.
Up to 10000 kgf application.
The simplest type of load cell is a bending beam with a strain gauge.
The shear is measured close to the neutral line of the load cell what reduces the effects of transverse forces.
Digital load cell are basically a combination of analog load cell and an analog to digital convertor mounted on the load cell itself.
Spring element and strain gauge are complemented with additional elements housing sealing elements etc protecting the strain gauge elements.
Torque however influences the measuring result.
The load cell should be mounted on a flat smooth surface with high strength hardened bolts.
Common types of load cells.
Single bending beam load cells.
These beams have fixed ends on both sides allowing for loads to be applied on the center of the load cell.
One end of the shear beam contains the mounting holes while the opposite end is where the cell is loaded.
The lc501 series of stainless steel compression load cells can withstand harsh industrial environments.
