GB2 High Stability Gauge Buster The GB2 High Stability Gauge Buster is an upgrade to our older line of Gauge Buster units. Software and hardware modifications have been performed to stabilize the GB2 unit, which makes it suitable for field use in not-so-great environments. These upgrades reduce unwanted noise and drastically improve stability in airplane […]
Load Cell Terminology In the last Back-to-Basics blog, I covered Measurement Uncertainty. As I continue to cover basic concepts for beginners, this blog details some common load cell terms typically found on a load cell specification sheet. In this post, I will cover Non-Linearity, Non-Repeatability, Hysteresis, and Static Error Band. There are several more terms […]
Wireless Handheld Indicator Kit The T24 wireless handheld indicator kit is the best option for displaying data from up to 12 wireless transmitter module sensors. It is a modular wireless solution for industrial sensor applications, including Morehouse shackle pins, load cells, and other rigging or lifting equipment. The data sent by transmitter modules can be […]
In the last Back-to-Basics blog, I covered Calibration versus Verification. As I continue to cover basic concepts for beginners, this blog will define measurement uncertainty and examine why it is important. What is Measurement Uncertainty? What measurement uncertainty is not is an error. It is imperative to understand the difference between these two terms as […]
Portable Sensor Display (PSDS) The PSDS (Portable Sensor Display) allows the simple display of strain bridge-based measurements, such as load cells and pressure gauges, with sensitivity up to ± 480 mV/V. The common application for these Portable Sensor Displays as an indicator for use with most Morehouse load cells is 2 -4 mV/V output, set up […]
Morehouse Force Calibration Setups and Adapters: These show the proper way to align load cells with the right adapters to minimize loading errors and improve reproducibility. In force calibration, the wrong adapters and setups can produce errors 20 - 50 times of what is expected. If you enjoyed this content, check out our LinkedIn and […]
In the last Back-to-Basics blog, I covered Compression and Tension Force Calibration. As I continue to cover basic concepts for beginners, this blog will cover the differences between calibration and verification. What is a Calibration? Let me start by stating that there are several definitions of calibration across multiple standards. My favorite definitions are below. […]
Morehouse DSC USB Load Cell Indicator The DSC-USB is a load cell indicator for a true direct-reading load cell system, which is powered through a USB port. This system is available at a lower cost than the higher-accuracy HADI indicator. It is ideal for calibrating load cells, testing machines, and other force or torque systems. […]
The Morehouse Universal Calibrating Machine: This machine is a tested 50-year-plus force machine capable of calibrating load cells, force gauges, crane scales, tension links, and almost all force-measuring instrumentation. For more information about this and several other Morehouse machines, please click here. If you enjoyed this content, check out our LinkedIn and YouTube channel for […]
