The load cell 1002 is the smallest of our standard load cells. It is ideal for all applications which require a compact low capacity design with a low accuracy. It is simple to mount and is low cost. Standard applications include simple filling systems, such as coffee and beverage vending machines, level control in the filling of small containers and bottles, as well as compact letter, kitchen and baby scales.
For larger platform scales four or more load cells an be connected together mechanically & electrically to produce an ultra low profile scale. In industrial applications, this load cell is also commonly used as a small force transducer. Typical applications include the measurement of thread tension in textile weaving machines and reel tension measurements in the foil and paper manufacturing industries. Other applications include the measurement of forces and torques in medical rehabilitation and training equipment which allows the monitoring and tailoring of exercise routines to suit the needs of individual patients.
The load cell 1002 can also be supplied with a 1000 ohms input impedance (1002-K) making it suitable for battery powered devices. Also because of its low power requirements the 1002-K is more suited for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
