Tension Only Load Cells

Tension occurs when a tensile stress is applied to a material resulting in it stretching. This leads to an increase in length, nominally <0.5mm.

Tension Load Cell

To be aware of:

  1. How the force is going to be applied to the load cell. This is how you maximise your accuracy in the system.
  2. Mis-aligned forces can damage certain designs of load cells.
  3. Be aware of how the force and re-acting force is to be applied to the load cell. Refer to the sketch: Pg 2 bottom right hand side of the PCM data sheets.
