LCM2453 1te High Temperature Stainless Steel Annular Compression Load Cell

We received this enquiry from an Australian manufacturer of machinery, used in the paper industry. The load cell was required to measure the force applied by a heated roller, by measuring at the roller tensioning points.

The customer needed the load cell to be as low profile as possible, it needed to have a high level of sealing (to at least IP67) and it needed to work in an environment that was often wet, but with radiated temperatures of upto 100°C. The design of the load cell was made more difficult as a Ø31mm hole was needed, to pass the tensioning bolts through.

The main criteria we were given was as follows:

  • The load cell had to be low profile (<30mm high)
  • The load cell was to used in compression, but a Ø31mm centre hole was essential
  • Environmental protection needed to be IP67 or better
  • The environment varied from wet to dry and the temperature varied from 10°C to 100°C
  • Due to the environment, corrosion resistance was an important attribute
  • 1te High Temperature Load Cell
  • Low profile, only 25.4mm high
  • Manufactured from 17-4PH stainless steel, offering high corrosion resistance
  • Suitable for use to 100°C
  • Supplied calibrated, with a calibration certificate, traceable to UKAS
  • Through hole design
  • Welded construction, offering IP68 sealing
