The F502 is a hollow compression load cell used for press calibration; bolt force measurements; material testing applications; civil engineering projects; rolling and reduction mill applications; and suspension weighing. The F502 can be mounted on flat surfaces; with leg mounts passing through the hollow center; over studs and bolts; or with the load applied to the top surface of the load cell by suspending the weight through the load cell’s hollow center. The F502 can be used with AC carrier and DC strain gage signal conditioning electronics. Interconnecting cable assemblies are available as an option. SensorData will provide in-house calibration of the F502 with customer-supplied electronics for a fee.
