Subminiature Compression Load Cells
(June 2009, Amherst, NY) Stellar Technology introduces the new subminiature series VLC856 compression load cells. Small in size - with diameters from 0.38” and heights of only 0.13” - these load cells deliver exceptional 0.50% accuracy for ranges from 10 to 1,000 lbf. Micro-Welded stainless steel construction provides for a much more repeatable, reliable, and rugged product.
Standard output for the Model VLC856 is 2 mV/V and electrical termination consists of a 4-conductor Teflon cable with braided stainless-steel shielding and an integral temperature and zero balance board. The VLC856 is temperature compensated from 70° to 170°F, and the temperature effect on zero and span is minimal at 0.01%/°F, insuring reliable performance. These load cells have a standard operating temperature range of -40° to 250°F, with an optional operating range from -65° to 400°F offered.
These small but rugged units feature a static overload capacity of 150% (FSO) and are perfectly suited for a variety of demanding limited-space applications including medical robotics, components testing, semiconductor polishing (CMP), tactical feedback systems, infusion pumps, and orthopedic stimulation. The Model VLC856 is available now.
