The DEMS load cell, now available from Celsum Technologies, is a miniature stainless steel load cell designed for automotive and aerospace applications. It is available with full scale ranges of 500N and 1kN, and will perform in tension and compression, and is available with a choice of mechanical connections (both male or female), and can be supplied with electrical connections to the precision bonded strain gauge or with a built-in analogue amplifier which will give an output scaled to between 0.5 and 4.5V DC. The DEMS transducer, built in 17-4PH stainless steel and sealed to IP67, is highly responsive, with a bandwidth of 10kHz, has an operating temperature range of -20C to +120C, is temperature compensated between 0C and +70C, runs off of a DC voltage supply between 8V and 16V, and is suitable for many static and dynamic.
