U3

The U3 load cell is based on the diaphragm principle; which means the strain gauges are mounted within the load cell housing in a well protected manner. Due to the design of the supporting membrane, the U3 force sensor guarantees an exceptionally high lateral force stability of up to 100%.

The U3 has a bending moment adjustment, so that acting moments as well as transverse forces are largely compensated for. The robust design is combined with a double-sided flange connection. This allows the sensor to be mounted quickly (within a few minutes): this minimizes downtime in production. The accuracy exceeds the typical requirements in manufacturing applications.

• HBK accuracy class: 0.2
• Nominal forces: 0.5 kN to 100 kN

Practical

• Hassle-free mounting via flange with integrated centering points
• Can be easily connected to an electrical source
• Optional: Adapter for connecting knuckle eyes, as well as plug-in connectors and TEDS

Minimal assembly time and high operational safety during production, monitoring and test tasks.

Robust

• Exceptional lateral force stability thanks to special support membrane construction
• High torsional and bending moment stability
• Stainless steel design
• Standard at HBK: High immunity to electromagnetic fields

Proven reliability: Measurement results are immune to the effects of transverse forces, bending moments, torsion and electromagnetic fields.
