August 27, 2013 - tecsis introduces Model XLP58, a precision low profile “pancake” load cell capable of measuring force in both tension and compression. These bonded foil, strain gage load cells are engineered for rugged use with all-welded construction to provide a rigidness that resists off center and side loading. XPL58 is available in industry-standard sizes and bolt patterns to be incorporated into a wide range of applications including tube mills, extruding processes, and weighing and batching operations. The versatile low profile design is available in a variety of sizes from 2.5” to 14” in diameter and able to measure loads from 5 lb to 500,000 lb with exceptional non-linearity, hysteresis, and repeatability specifications.
Rugged, welded stainless steel construction of the XLP58 provides an ultimate overload of 300% of capacity and 150% safe overload. Standard output is 2 or 3 mV/V (based on range) with optional 0-5 Vdc or 4-20mA also available. Operating temperature is -65° to 250°F, compensated from 60° to 160 °F. Model XLP58 is offered with optional pull plates, built-in amplifiers, load buttons, and dual bridge configurations. The diameter of the center through-hole is customer-specified and can be threaded if desired.
