Our SLC43 load cell or force sensor is a device which converts load or force into an electrical signal.
The SLC43 load cell should be mounted on a hard, flat surface. Our SLC43 compression load cell measures the force applied to the load button.
Care should be taken to ensure that the model SLC43 load sensor is not exposed to load or force in excess of its capability. The range of model SLC43 compression load cell selected should therefore be appropriate for the maximum force (including transient forces) that can be applied to it.
The SLC43 transducer is a strain gauge type transducer and has a mV output which may require an amplifier. For the SLC43 we can offer a variety of high quality, low noise and high precision strain gauge amplifiers.
