Our SLC31 load cell or force sensor is a device which converts load or force into an electrical signal.
Care should be taken to ensure that the model SLC31 load sensor is not exposed to load or force in excess of its capability. The range of model SLC31 tension/compression load cell (universal load cell) selected should therefore be appropriate for the maximum force (including transient forces) that can be applied to it.
One particular feature of this transducer is its very small size
The SLC31 transducer is a strain gauge type transducer and has a mV output which may require an amplifier. For the SLC31 we can offer a variety of high quality, low noise and high precision strain gauge amplifiers.

Miniature tension compression load cell

Tension/compression load cells measure the force applied to the centre threads of the load cell.
