FAQs of Bending Beam Type Loadcell:
Q: How does a bending beam type load cell work?
A: A bending beam type load cell operates by converting applied force into electrical signals using resistance strain gauges. When a load is applied, the strain gauges embedded in the beam measure the resulting deformation and produce a proportional voltage output.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this load cell in industrial applications?
A: Its high accuracy (0.03% F.S.), coupled with robust construction and reliable output, enables precise force measurement for quality control, automation, and process monitoring. It is also easy to integrate with standard DC supplies (512 V) and instrumentation.
Q: When should I choose a bending beam load cell over other types?
A: Select a bending beam load cell when you require precise, repeatable force measurements in static or dynamic settings, especially where space is limited and installation flexibility is important.
Q: Where can these load cells be sourced in India?
A: They are widely available across India from dealers, distributors, exporters, importers, manufacturers, retailers, suppliers, traders, and wholesalers specializing in industrial sensors and automation equipment.
Q: What is the installation and connection process for this load cell?
A: The load cell is typically bolted into position so the force to be measured creates a bending motion. Electrical connection involves wiring to a suitable supply voltage (512 V DC) and instrument that reads the output voltage signal (12 mV/V).
Q: How do I use the output signal from this load cell?
A: The output is an analog voltage proportional to the applied force. Connect the load cell to an amplifier or data acquisition system capable of reading low millivolt signals and converting them for monitoring, control, or display purposes.
