Weight, load cell, force, stress and tensile strength transducers typically use strain gauge elements in a bridge configuration. The required digital panel meters are strain gauge and load cell meters whose capabilities include high gain, multiple noise filtering modes, zero and span adjustment, and a built-in bridge excitation supply to power strain gauges or load cells. Weight, load cell, force, stress and tensile strength transducers are also available with a conditioned process signal output (such as 4-20 mA or 0-10 V) or a pulsed / AC output. These signals can be displayed by a process meter or pulse-input rate meter. Capabilities available with the Laureate load cell panel meters, process meters and pulse input rate meters include high read rate, peak hold, custom curve linearization, and rate from successive readings. |
