Tension And Compression Load Cell LCR17 features an internal threaded hole on each side of the sensor to facilitate installation. Rated capacities available are 50N, 100N, 200N, 500N, 1kN, 2kN, 5kN, 10kN, 20kN, 30kN and 50kN, it is applicable for both compressive and tensile force measurement. Model LCR17 utilizes strain gauge technology to deliver unamplified mV/V output from a Wheatstone bridge circuit bonded to a spring element made from aluminum or alloy steel depending on the rated capacity, the output signal is positive in one loading direction and negative in the opposite direction. Force transducer LCR17 is temperature compensated to ensure measuring stability over a wide temperature range, it offers an excellent solution for force detecting and feedback in actuators, cylinders, arbor presses, material testing machines, etc. For OEM applications and special measuring tasks, customization services can be provided.
