Stainless Steel Miniature Compression LOAD CELL CDF Series

Product catalog summary

Description: The CDF series of low profile miniature load cells are designed for measuring compressive forces. They are suitable for both force measurement and weighing applications due to their compact size, allowing them to fit into small spaces and be retrofitted easily. These load cells are popular in industrial process measurement applications for monitoring and control, as well as in research and development.

Stainless Steel Miniature Compression LOAD CELL CDF Series-1

Stainless Steel Miniature Compression LOAD CELL i Integral Load Button Options Available Non-Standard sizes available on request Other ranges available on request Special mounting adaptors available on request Shunt Calibration Facility Different temperature compensation ranges The CDF range of low profile miniature load cells is designed for the measurement of compressive forces. The CDF is equally suited for both Force Measurement and Weighing applications alike. It's compact size means that it can be fitted in to the smallest of space envelopes and is often retrofitted. The small physical size has made it very attractive in many industrial process measurement applications for monitoring or control purposes. It is equally suited and performs well in a wide range different research and development applications. The CDF, as with all other Applied Measurements sensors, can be supplied complete with monitoring/control electronics and calibrated as a system (please refer to the Instrumentation datasheets).
