Pancake Load Cell – Low Profile, Compression and Tension, C3
Price on Request
Low-profile pancake (wheel) load cell for compression and tension: heat-treated nickel-plated alloy steel, C3, 2.0 mV/V, safe load 120%, 12 m cable.
The HSCo pancake load cell is a low-profile, wheel-style load cell that works in compression and tension. Heat-treated, nickel-plated alloy steel makes it rugged and able to absorb shock loads, and C3 accuracy with 2.0 mV/V output suits it to industrial weighing, testing and tank monitoring.
Why builders choose it
- Low profile wheel design, easy to install.
- Compression and tension in one cell.
- Rugged. Heat-treated, nickel-plated alloy steel absorbs shock loads.
- C3 accuracy; non-linearity and creep under ±0.03% of full scale.
- Long cable. 12 m as standard.
