tension/compression load cell / planar beam

Futek offers a wide range of low profile tension & compression load cells that are compact in their design and therefore suitable for inline loading applications. Given that the LRF350 low profile tension & compression load cell has a height of 1 only, it can easily be placed into small spaces. It also features either 17-4 stainless steel (500 1,000 lb) or 2024 aluminum construction (150 - 300 lb), with female/female threads. It is best suited for high capacity requirements. For low capacity requirements, LRF300 or LRF325 would be better suited.

In the case of the LRF350, a major attraction is its nonlinearity of ?0.1%. It can function seamlessly in disparate temperatures from -60? F to 200? F. Deflection on it is just 0.003 to 0..0 nominal. Further, it can also be customized or modified as per the needs of varied customers.
