T20
Tension Link Load Cell | Hermetically Sealed
CAPACITY
5TF-20TF
NON-LINEARITY
±0.023% RO
RATING
IP68
The T20 is a standard tension link load cell for simple tension measurement incontrolled lifting or test rig applications
Its laser welded stainless steel assembly achieves IP68 sealing, making it robust and resilient to harsh environments.
The cable exit is hard wired, but a plug/socket arrangement can be supplied, if required.
Should the application demand a wireless option, we can incorporate the T24 instrumentation.
