- Stainless Steel construction.
- Environmentally Sealed to IP66 (IP67 and submersible versions can also be offered)
- Designed to fit standard metric rod-end bearing sizes.
- Special Sizes and ranges available.
- Can be supplied with imperial threads & male or male/female end threads.
- Can be supplied complete with mating spherical rod-end bearings.
The TCA series load cell is ideal for measuring both tensile and compressive forces. The standard metric threads at each end of the load cell are designed to accept standard spherical seating rod-end bearing.
There is great flexibility in the TCA design, allowing us to offer special sizes, to meet specific application requirements, or different end thread sizes/combinations. There are versions available with male threads at each end, or male threads one end, female the other. We are also happy to supply any of the TCA series with imperial thread sizes.
The TCA series can be supplied as shown in this datasheet or can be modified to meet a particular application requirement. We are always pleased to discuss any special requirements that can be accommodated. The TCA series can be supplied on it’s own or combined with our extensive range of instrumentation to provide a complete load monitoring system |

UF1 Low Range Isometric Force Sensor |
|
- Ranges 25g (1oz) to 1500g (54oz)
- Low Deflection
- High Output Sensitivity
- High Overload Range
- Versatile signal connection method
- Versatile Mounting Arrangement
The Micron Systems UF1 series force sensors from the range of Pioden Transducers has been widely used in many applications for more than 40 years.
The UF1 has proved the first choice for many applications including muscular and membrane movement monitoring, yarn and fabric tension control, fluid viscosity measurement and even the force induced in butterfly wings during flight.
There are many other applications that the UF1 has been used in. It is most popular in applications where our customers need to measure small forces, with a good level of accuracy, minimal deflection and with a flexible mounting arrangement.
The UF1 can be supplied on it's own or combined with any of Micron Systems wide range of instrumentation products to provide either a simple or more complex monitoring or control system.

WAS Force Washer Through Hole Load Cell |
|
- Ranges 12.5kN to 540kN
- Stainless Steel Construction
- Environmentally sealed to IP66
- Special Sizes and ranges available
- Higher Accuracy versions available
- Many other variants may be available (please contact technical support with any requirements you may have)
The WAS range of load cells from Micron Systems have been specifically designed for applications where there is a requirement for the force application component to pass through the center of the load cell. This style of product is often referred to by different names, including annular load cells, force washers, donut load cells, through hole load cells etc.
The main application for the WAS series is measuring the tension in bolts for safety monitoring and control, or general quality control. Micron Systems specialize in the design of custom load cells, so have also been heavily involved in designing similar product for rock anchor force measurement, fork lift truck weighing, and tie rod tension monitoring.
If you have a requirement for an annular or through-hole load cell that can not be satisfied with the standard WAS series, then contact our technical department with your requirement, and we will probably be able to solve your application problem for you.
The WAS series can be supplied as a stand alone product or be incorporated into an instrumentation package, to meet your specific application requirements. |
