The F254 is designed for high levels of cyclic loading and is readily adapted to series mechanical connection within actuator rods or pistons by using our ‘in-line’ adapter.
The loadcell has good output symmetry between compression and tension operation. All standard bi-directional loadcells are calibrated in both modes. If you require a recessed boss the F318 pancake loadcell may be more suitable. The F318 has standard ranges from 1 to 500kN.
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.
