Ultra-Miniature Load Cell

Due to their extremely compact design, these load cells can be used wherever static or dynamic load forces have to be measured in very tight spaces.

Model 8416 is perfect for use in micro-technology and just as suitable for measuring tasks in the research and development sector.

Typical applications for these ultra-miniature compression load cells include

1. Equipment construction
2. Production lines
3. Measuring and control equipment
4. Testing systems
5. Handling gear
6. Universal testing machines, etc.

The ultra-miniature compression load cell model 8416 is a flat, circular disc, the bottom of which is sealed with a cover.

The load application button for receiving the compression forces is an integrated part of the sensor.

The sensor element inside the body carries a strain gauge full bridge which outputs voltage directly proportional to the measurement variable upon application of force.

The short nominal measurement distance of the ultra-miniature compression load cells due to their design provides a high degree of rigidity. If needed, the nominal characteristic value can be standardized in the sensor connection cable.

This allows for quick and easy interchange or simultaneous connection of several sensors to a single evaluation unit.
