Technical Note:Environmental Conditions

2022-08-08
■Most of the process industries rely heavily upon strain gage based load cells for accurate and consistent weight data and expect them to perform under a wide range of adverse conditions, including mechanical and chemical attack.
■The problem is that premature failure of load cells can have far reaching effects on the overall processes, and have a consequent impact on cost, safety and product reputation. Replacing a load cell in the field will involve not only the cost of the component itself, but also the expenses associated with labor, downtime and re-calibration.
■There are several factors that can cause load cell failure, one of the most important is the environment. This Technical Note takes a look at the effects the environment can have on load cells and offers guidelines on how to minimize thes effects through proper selection and application.In addition, existing load cell classification standards are overviewed.
