LOAD CELL OPTIONS - Starrett offers a full range of precision load cell sensors for force measurement, force analysis, and material testing applications. There are three main types of load cell, depending on the test stand being unitlized and the type and complexity of tests being conducted.
The Load Cell. There are three categories of load cell, depending on test stand selection, the nature of tests being performed, and the environmental conditions the system will encounter.
BLC SERIES- Starrett BLC load cell sensors are full-bridge, temperature compensated, strain gage instruments designed and optimized for basic force testing applications. These S-beam sensors feature high axial stiffness and minimal deflection at full capacity which leads to improved measurement accuracy. The BLC sensors are available in load capacities from 2lbf-500lbf (10N-2500N). They are general purpose sensors which are used exclusively on the FMM-series test stands.
MLC SERIES- Starrett MLC load cell sensors are full-bridge, temperature compensated, strain gage instruments designed and optimized for material testing applications. These low profile sensors feature high axial stiffness and minimal deflection at full capacity which leads to improved measurement accuracy. The MLC sensors are available in a load capacity range of 28lbf-11,250lbf (125N-50,000N). They are general purpose sensors used on the FMS, MMS, FMD, and MMD-series test stands.
FLC SERIES- Starrett FLC load cell sensors are full-bridge, temperature compensated, strain gage instruments designed for force measurement applications, but also suitable for some material testing applications. These S-beam sensors feature high axial stiffness and minimal deflection at full capacity which leads to improved measurement accuracy. They are designed for use on the FMS, MMS, FMD, and MMD-series test stands and come in three levels, depending on user needs. FLC-E Series - “Economy” S-beam Sensors When price is an issue, these general purpose load cell sensors are economical and suitable for most general purpose force measurement applications. They are available in a load capacity range of 5lbf-1124lbf (50N-5000N), depending on needs. FLC-Series “Sealed” S-beam Sensors These models are suitable for applications in non-laboratory environments where dirt, oil, dust and debris may be present. They are available in a capacity range of 112lbf-1124lbf (500N-5000N), depending on needs. FLC-P Series - “Premium” S-beam Sensors Ideal for low load applications, these sensors have a safe overload rating of 1000% of the sensor’s load capacity. The FLC-P series is avaialable in a load capacity range of 11lbf-56lbf (5N-250N), depending on needs.
