Delivery: ex stock | Warranty: 24 months Tension and Compression Load Cell ■ Measuring ranges from 0 ... 20 N to 0 ... 5 kN, ■ Tilt-free installation thanks to point-contact mounts ■ Excellent price/performance ratio ■ Pull plate for directing tension forces ■ Load buttons for simple measurement of compressive loads ■ Standardized output signal ■ Reference sensor for comparative measurements ■ All forms of test benches The tension & compression load cells from the 8523 series are designed for a wide range of uses. The sensors feature many benefits, including three point-contact mounts for tilt-free installation. Thanks to this feature, excellent measurement results can be achieved even with a sub-optimum mounting surface. The force to be measured is applied to the central threaded hole in the tension or compression direction. For measuring purely compressive loads, using load buttons from our accessories range saves the need for complex sensor-integration mechanisms. Tensile loads in rods or chains can also be detected with ease using the optional pull plate. Inside the sensor is an elastic membrane, on which are applied strain gages connected in a full Wheatstone bridge. If a tensile or compressive load is applied to the sensor, the ohmic resistance of the measuring bridge changes and detunes the output signal in proportion to the measured load in mV/V. burster Sensors and Process Instruments - Technical changes reserved.

Rod end bearings The 8523 load cell can be optionally supplied with a rod end bearing. In combination with a pull plate (see option), up to two rod end bearings can be used. Rod end bearings ensure optimum load application when the sensor is used in the tension direction. In addition, they can compensate for slight misalignment in the compression direction. ■ Optimal force introduction ■ Very high dynamic und static load capacity ■ Material: stainless steel ■ PTFE insert, maintenance-free Load buttons are used when purely compressive forces are meant to be applied to the load cell and when direct...
