With bi-directional versions there is a small difference between the output signal for compression and tension. All standard bi-directional loadcells are calibrated in both modes and the output for each direction is stated on the test / calibration certificate.
The F204 is ideally suited to bi-directional engineering force measurements. They are used extensively within the automotive industry for testing of auto components. Standard rod end bearings are available for this product. If you require better performance than the F204 the F317 may be suitable.
We are happy to design variants of this loadcell to meet your specific requirements. Versions can be manufactured for fully compensated operation up to +250°C. Please consult our engineering department.
