Load Cell Installation Aid
Load cells must be able to bend. Due to this deformation, the dehung measuring strips are compressed on one side and stretched on the other side. This changes the resistance. This change in resistance can be measured and displayed by an evaluation device as a weight value.
In order for the load cell to deform, it must not fit flat on a construction. Spacer plates ensure an optimal distance between the design and the load cell.
Applications
Spacer plates are used wherever load cells are used on a construction or in a platform. For floor scales that are equipped with shear rod load cells, a spacer plate is used. Single point load cells should be equipped with two spacer plates.
Construction
The spacer plates are metal plates with a thickness of a few millimeters. They are adapted to the contact surface and to the hole pattern of the load cell. The spacer plates are simply inserted between the load cell and the construction or weighing plate and screwed to the screws according to the load cells.
For spacer plates for single point load cells, the offer consists of a set of 2 plates. In the case of shear rod load cells, it is one spacer plate per load cell.
The spacer plates are made of steel or stainless steel.
Characteristics
Material: steel or stainless steel
Material thickness: Depends on the nominal load and design of the load cell
Hole holes according to the hole pattern of the load cell
Assembly
The spacer plates are simply screwed on both sides between the load cell and the construction. The corresponding screw set can be ordered directly.
