image of Model 41 Tension/Compression Universal Load Cell

Our SLC41 load cell or force sensor is a device which converts load or force into an electrical signal.
The SLC41 load cell should be mounted on a hard, flat surface. Tension/compression load cells measure the force applied to the centre threads of the load cell.
Care should be taken to ensure that the model SLC41 load sensor is not exposed to load or force in excess of its capability. The range of model SLC41 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.
The SLC41 transducer is a strain gauge type transducer and has a mV output which may require an amplifier. For the SLC41 we can offer a variety of high quality, low noise and high precision strain gauge amplifiers.

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