Description
The high precision load cell model for compression forces consists of
a circular body, in which a load button is integrated. The load to be
measured is transferred via its convex surface to the measuring element
where it is converted into an electrical voltage by a strain gauge full
bridge. The output voltage is proportional to the measuring force.
The
measuring element is located between two stabilizing membranes
protecting the central part from lateral displacement when subjected to
lateral force. A high level of measurement accuracy requires force
application using a flat and hard stamp or plate while the load cell is
mounted on a plane surface. The surface should be polished or even
lapped and hardened. Its thickness should correspond to the forces in
order to prevent bending.
The force should be applied
axially and centrically. Even if smaller angle errors influence the
measuring signal, they are minimized by the convex and plane surface of
the load application button.
Two laterally located M8 threaded holes support the handling and transport of the sensor.
