5 x 1kN Tension Load Cells for Test Machine Application 📰
31st Aug 2017In addition to the larger load cells we supply, we also manufacture much smaller load cells, like these DCE tension and compression load cells that will be despatched tomorrow to one of our UK customers. Rated at 1kN, they will be installed in a specially designed NDT test machine to validate the force applied during the test. The customer required a 4-20mA output for direct data transfer to a PLC, but due to the very small size of the load cells (just 20mm in diameter), an external amplifier was the only way to achieve the necessary output, and so SGA amplifiers were also supplied.
