High capacity compression load cell HAEHNE Gmbh

DK2 Compression Force Load Cell

The compression force load cells of the Dk2 series are characterized by their very compact design. They have been especially developed for applications where large forces must be measured accurately within confined spaces - diameter and height. The compression force load cell of the series DK2 consist of a cylindrical membrane, whose special form was optimized according to Finite Elements Analysis (FEA). Strain gauge elements on the membrane surface capture the acting forces. The voltage supply to the full bridge and the processing of the measuring signals is effected by way of a suitable amplifier, e.g. the HAEHNE DMA. The signals at the output terminals of the amplifier are proportional to the acting compression force. They can be digitally displayed or used as instantaneous values in a control loop. The radial cable entry facilitates simple mounting of the load cell to machine frames. In order to optimize the path of the force the use of a load button or a self aligning pad is recommended.
