The %RO (Rate Output) of all the load cells that Encardio-Rite has is mentioned in its specifications. The accuracy of a load cell sensor is determined through its %RO.If a 10,000 kg load cell has an error of ± 0.5%RO, it means the best resolution of the load cell would be ±50Kg
Load Cell Sensitivity is a very important factor for the instrument. A sensitivity of 3mV/V means that the load cell produces an output signal of 3mV at nominal force when the input voltage is 1V.
Over time, load cells tend to age and misalign. Hence, there’s a need to calibrate them regularly. The comparison of actual load cell outputs against the test loads is known as calibration.
A strain gauge is a single transducer used to convert the mechanical deformation into readable electrical output. Whereas, a load cell comprises an array of strain gauges that convert the mechanical load into readable units.
The axis along which the load cell is designed to be loaded is known as the primary axis.
It is the load applied along the primary axis.
The difference between the output at a specific load and the corresponding point on the straight line drawn between minimum load and maximum load is termed as Non-Linearity. It is usually expressed in units of %FS.
The maximum difference between output readings for repeated loadings while keeping the loading and environmental conditions identical is known as Non-Repeatability.This was all about the Load Cells and its different types. If you have any queries, feel free to comment below.
