Versatile DSCC Pancake Load Cells Deliver Multiple Benefits
For weighing and force monitoring, Applied Measurements’ DSCC pancake load cells are the ideal choice. Here’s why….. Tension and Compression Capable Low Physical Height Complete Customisation Possible Resistant to Extraneous Forces High-Frequency Response Stainless Steel Construction The DSCC pancake load cell is designed for weighing and force monitoring alike and can operate in both tension and compression. Its low physical height lends it to applications where space is at a premium. What’s more, the DSCC pancake load cell can be entirely customised by our design team to suit your application, including the dimensions, centre thread sizes, higher capacities in excess of 3000kN and IP rating up to IP68 for submersible applications. The image above shows the recent customisation of the […]
Telemetry Lift Link Load Cells Tip the Scales for Plaxton Bus
A multi-channel system was set up using two ET24-5T and two ET24-12T telemetry lift link load cells, two inclinometers (angle sensors) and a T24-BSu base station. ET24 telemetry load cells were attached to each corner of the bus to monitor the load and the two inclinometers were used to measure the incline. Once the bus was lifted, instantaneous measurements were picked-up by a T24-BSu wireless telemetry base station and the data was transmitted straight to the PC or laptop.
ET24 Telemetry Lift Link Load Cell Offers Flexibility in Lifting Load Monitoring
Introducing the new ET24 In-Line Telemetry Lift Link Load Cell… More Accurate: ±0.3% of reading More Adaptable: Wireless monitoring from multiple locations and load cells More Available: 3-4 days delivery time Cutting Edge Power Management System The new ET24 telemetry lift link load cell’s contemporary power management means transmission distances in excess of 200 metres are achievable in open-field situations, avoiding the expense and problematic use of cabling. The telemetry lift link’s batteries will last for more than 600 hours with the batteries in the handheld display lasting up to 40. There’s no need to worry about finding special batteries either as both the load cell and display use any standard AA alkaline type. The antenna is internal so there’s no […]
CCG Annular Load Cell Flexible in Design, Flexible in Application
Introducing the CCG family of annular load cells: Applied Measurements are proud to present the CCG family of annular load cells. These annular or donut load cells have been designed for the measurement of compressive forces, both continually and periodically, and are often used in critical bolted installations to monitor bolt tension. One major benefit is that the CCG annular load cells can be entirely customised to suit your specific application. The CCG annular load cell is flexible in: All dimensions – Fits into spaces which limit the use of other load cells. Our lowest height to date standing at a tiny 5mm tall! IP rating – IP66 as standard, can be enhanced to IP68 for submersible applications. Temperature range […]
Applied Measurements’ Submersible Load Cells fitted to the World’s Largest All-Terrain Hexapod
Applied Measurements provided the load cells needed to monitor the force on individual legs to stop the Mantis (the world’s largest hydraulic hexapod robot) walking into a situation that is hazardous to its overall stability. Assisted by Applied Measurements’ compact and submersible DSCC load cells, the Mantis successfully travels over all slopes and uneven surfaces, traversing most types of terrain, even wading through water.
Submersible Subsea Load Cells Excel Under Pressure
With over 20 years experience designing and manufacturing submersible and subsea load cells, it’s no wonder Applied Measurements have sensors functioning worldwide, from a few metres below the surface to 10 kilometres underwater (depth or pressure equivalencies). These submersible and subsea sensors operate precisely and reliably 24/7 in applications including underwater structure lifting systems, ROVs and offshore power generation. Many of our load cell designs are based on standard products with modifications to allow operation in underwater environments; O-ring seals, welded housings and moulded subsea connector assemblies ensure high integrity even at great depths. The most common models are our CCD column type compression load cells; DBCL in-line tension and compression load cells (image shown), which cover higher capacities from […]
DBB Series S-Beam Load Cell Range Extended to 10 tonnes
Applied Measurements is excited to announce the expansion of the DBB series of S-Beam load cells to include a 10,000kg /100kN model, extending the already diverse range of potential applications further still. The DBB range of load cells are generally available ex-stock regardless of capacity, and are easily matched with an array of instrumentation including amplifiers, indicators and digitisers, many of which are also ex-stock. Our S-Beam load cells are used in many applications from hopper weighing and tensile testing to bicycle spoke force measurement and equine research. For a portable stand-alone system, any DBB load cell can be wired into the AMLTR-150 battery powered, hand held display, while the INT2-L panel mounted indicator is versatile giving you lots of analogue […]
