Strain Gauge Anchor Load Cell
Consists of a hollow cylinder of high strength steel and a series of electrical resistance strain gauges connected around the periphery of the spool as a Wheatstone Bridge and provides a single mV/V signal output.
 |
Applications:
To measure tensile loads in tie-back anchors and rock bolts or compressive loads in structures.
Features:
 |
Manufactured from high tensile, heat treated, stress relieved steel and with precision bearing surfaces |
|
Multi sensor configuration makes it possible to obtain more accurate readings under mildly eccentric loading conditions |
|
Connection to the load cell is via a heavy duty multi-core sheathed cable which can be connected to a direct portable readout, switched terminal units or a data logging system |
