What is a Load Cell? A load cell is a force sensor that receives a voltage (excitation) from a regulated power source (usually a digital indicator or signal conditioner) and sends back a low voltage signal (signal) when force is applied. The load cell signal is converted to a visual or numeric value by […]
Morehouse Shear Web Load Cells When high accuracy and low risk are critical, customers rely on Morehouse for our Precision Load Cell (Shear Web) These strain gauge-type load cells are often the choice for companies making field measurements in accordance with ASTM E4 and ISO 7500. Lower uncertainties allow fewer standards to maintain, significantly lowering […]
Over the years, many of us at Morehouse have been asked what value one should use for Load Cell Reliability when a system is new. You may think: “I need a load cell reliability number for my uncertainty budget. What should I use?” The answer is variable as it depends on several factors. One critical […]
