System Employs Load Button And Amplifier/Conditioner

A low-profile, compression-only load button and a 12 Vdc powered amplifier/conditioner module have been combined to form an economically priced system. The LBC series load button is constructed from stainless steel and comes in a variety of ranges from 100 to 50,000 lbs. Counter board mounting holes are provided for fastening down from the top. Accuracies are consistent with highly accurate strain gage-based load cells. The TM0-1 amplifier/conditioner module is said to provide dedicated conditioning, and several units can be powered from a common power supply. Balance and span pots are designed with low tempco metal film for long-term stability and good resolution. For pricing information, contact TRANSDUCER TECHNIQUES INC., Temecula, CA. (800) 344-3965.
