Load cells cover huge weight range
Stellar load cells are built to ISO9001:2000 quality standards for use in oil and gas, automotive, aerospace and all manufacturing and test and measurement applications.
The GT100 has a standard output of 3mV/V and delivers linearity and hysteresis of 0.25% across pressure ranges from 10 to 1380bar.
Thermal isolation ensures reliable performance over an operating temperature of -73 to +148C.
The compensated temperature range is -35 to +77C, which can be extended to -53 to +121C.
This rugged stainless steel sensor has built-in overpressure protection and low sensitivity to shock, vibration and thermal influence.
Wiring is through a heavy-duty six-pin stainless steel connector and four pressure fittings are offered, depending on the range.
