The FMS DMGZ 300 Series compression / tension load cells utilize four foil-type strain gauges in a full wheatstone bridge configuration mounted on the sensor sleeve. This accurate and robust measuring method is ideal to work in harsh environments.
The DMGZ 300 Series load cells measure force in the direction of the center axis of the sensor. A force is applied via threaded shaft, or other means, to the measuring mechanism of the sensor. They can provide both compression or tension measurement. The integrated high overload protection protects the sensor against damage. Recalibration is not required.
