Load Cells suit low force measurement applications.

Press Release Summary:




Offering full range measurement capabilities to 60 g, with 12 mV/V FS output and infinite resolution, SS2/SS3 series enables low forces to be resolved down to fraction of 1 g. Bonded semiconductor strain gage technology confers sensitivity, while robust design provides immunity to effects of eccentric loading, side loading, and bending moments. With low deflection and high-frequency response, units can measure peak and transient forces over operating temperature range of -20 to +90°C.

Sherborne Sensors Announces North American Launch of SS2/SS3 Series Ultra Low Range Precision Load Cells



Sherborne Sensors (www.sherbornesensors.com), a global leader in the design and manufacture of inclinometers, accelerometers, force transducers, load cells, rotary encoders, instrumentation and accessories for industrial, military and aerospace customers, has announced the North American launch of the SS2/SS3 series, a family of ultra-low range precision load cells, designed for aerospace, automotive, medical, R&D and general industry applications where extremely low force measurements are required.

The SS2/SS3 series offers full range measurement capabilities to 60 grams, with a 12mV/V full scale output and virtually infinite resolution, enabling low forces to be resolved down to just a fraction of one gram. Bonded semiconductor strain gage technology confers excellent sensitivity, and eliminates the fragility associated with non-bonded strain gage types. The robust design of the SS2/SS3 series features excellent immunity to the effects of eccentric loading, side loading and bending moments, with added versatility of precision measurement capabilities in either tension or compression mode. Low deflection and high-frequency response characteristics of the SS2/SS3 series are suitable for measuring both peak and transient forces over an operating temperature range of -20 to +90 °C.

Sherborne Sensors customers benefit from extensive applications engineering support, global technical sales presence, repair, refurbishment and calibration services, stocking programs, and continuous product improvements. Illustrating the confidence that Sherborne Sensors places in its products, SS2/SS3 series ultra-low range precision load cells include a comprehensive two-year warranty. Additionally, throughout 2010, Sherborne Sensors guarantees on-time delivery for SS2/SS3 series load cells, or the Purchaser is entitled to claim credit, in accordance with the new Sherborne Sensors Late Delivery Compensation plan.
