RTN Ring Torsion Load Cells
■ Legal-for-trade design according to OIML (up to 5000 d and 7500 d for multi-interval scales) ■ High accuracy, even for very small application areas (for legal-for-trade applications up to at least 15 %) ■ Large output signal and this high-resolution useful signal range ■ Because of the low power consumption, multi-scale systems can also be realized with simple control electronics ■ Use in hazardous zone with protection class Ex ia IIC T4 Gb / Ex ia IIIC T125 °C
Db or protection class Ex nA IIC T4 Gc /
Ex tb IIIC T125 °C Db ■ Protection class IP68
Application
The load cell as transducer converts the mechanical input variable force proportionally into the electrical output variable voltage.
The consistent optimization of the ring torsion load cell offers the user specific advantages:
The extremely small frame size simplifies the use in almost all weighing device applications
The robust construction allows problem-free transport, installation and operation, also under very rough ambient conditions (disturbance forces, temperature)
Construction
Hermetically sealed encapsulation through laser welding (IP68)
High corrosion protection through electrolytically polished stainless steel
All electrical components are located inside the load cell and thus are optimally protected The high quality and robust connecting cable is guided radially into the load cell In connection with adapter kits the RTN load cells are compatible previous designs
Function
High measuring sensitivity
High reproducibility
High long-term stability and therefore consistently high accuracy permanently
Extremely small measured value influence as a result of lateral forces
High functional safety, even with frequently unavoidable impact loads and constraining forces, as well as with electrical interferences
Integrated overvoltage protection
Torque-free force input/output as a result of the direct, vertical power train

SENSiQ® PWS
Platform load cell 10 ... 700 kg
■ Very low corner load error ■ Good cost-benefit ratio ■ Available in accuracies of 0.05% and legal-for-trade design ■ Option PWS Plus – Improved protection against increased humidity ■ ATEX and IECEx certification ■ Optimized by exact calibration for parallel circuits ■ Six-wire circuitry ■ 100% stainless steel
Application
SENSiQ PWS load cells convert proportionally the mechanical input variable force into the electrical variable voltage. They are ideal for use in platform scales, weighfeeders and bin weighers. The compact design facilitates planning into any given construction.
Construction
The PWS load cells are produced entirely from stainless steel. They are connected electrically by a high-quality, 6-wire screened PVC cable. The six-wire circuitry makes the measuring signal insensitive to differences in lengths of the connection cables.
Function
High calibration accuracy which provides ideal conditions for the parallel arrangement of load cells
High reproducibility of the measuring signals
Extremely low interference by transverse loads of the measured values
