Load cell offsets side effects of side loading

A RDP Electronics product story
Edited by the Laboratorytalk editorial team May 11, 2007

Enclosed in a stainless steel casing the Model 31 range utilises rugged strain gauge technology that measures tension or compression forces applied to the centre threads of the load cell.

Designed to reduce to a minimum the effects of side loading, the Model 31 universal load cell from RDP Electronics is compact and ideal for integration in special purpose machinery or test rigs and anywhere space is at a premium.

With a minimum body size of just 19mm diameter and height of 11.5mm the Model 31 range of load cells offers versions measuring from just 250 gm (2.5N) up to 1,0000 lbs (44kN).

Signal output can be amplified using RDP signal conditioning/display units.
