Tension/compression load cell BLC

S-beamsingle-axisstrain gauge

Description
BLC force sensor for L1 test benches. The BLC series force sensors are designed exclusively for use with L1 force test benches. Full-bridge S-beam design for reliable and repeatable measurements.

Main features

• Load cell type: S-beam load cell
• Compatibility: designed for use with L1 test benches
• TEDS identification: IEEE 1451.4 compliant (automatic sensor recognition by the L1 system)
• Supplied with quick-change clevis adapter and metric threads

Usage and monitoring details
When connected to the L1 test bench, the L1 system automatically recognizes the sensor characteristics (model number and serial number). The L1 software can program protections to help avoid accidental overloads and continuously monitors the load cell to display overload history.

Calibration and certificate
Supplied with an NIST calibration certificate (COFRAC equivalent).
