Tension Load Cell

TLP-NB Tension Load Cell 10kN to 1MNCE

The TLP-NB Tension Load Cell is a tension-only load cell that is used primarily in applications such as measuring tension on wire rope or loads suspended from cranes. Eyebolts integrated into the main unit facilitate mounting simply by attaching shackles.

This load cell is available with two isolated input / output on request.

Coating Materials

Coating materials

The type of coating required and the application method differ depending on the environment in which the strain gauge is to be used. In general, if one type of coating is not sufficient, multiple coatings can be combined to protect the strain gauges. At TML, the coating applied directly to the surface of the strain gauge is referred to sequentiallyas the first coating, with subsequent coating layers referred to sequentially as the second coating, third coating, etc. Multi-layer coatings are recommended for strain gauge protection.

Strain Transducer Optional Accessory

KMF Optional accessoryCE

Surface strain measurement onto steel and concrete structures is available with KM-100B or KM-100BT. (Optional fittings such as Spacer and Collar are available for fixing the model and positioning gauge length.)

Spacer KMF-12-100 / KMMF-22-100

A spacer is needed whenever strain transducer is installed to measure surface strain. The KMF-12-100 spacer is used to accurately locate the gauge length needed to attach KMF-22 and KMF-23B Collars to a structure.
