Overview

The ABB magnetoelastic load cell is a robust and high-precision sensor designed for accurate force, weight, and tension measurement in industrial applications. It employs the magnetoelastic effect to convert mechanical stress into measurable electrical signals, offering exceptional stability and durability even in harsh environments.

Structure and Connection

Constructed from a single piece of stainless steel, the sensor body is directly machined into the steel plate for maximum structural strength and durability.

Equipped with acid-resistant cable connectors and fixed PTFE insulation, providing excellent resistance to corrosion, humidity, and mechanical stress.

The rugged design makes it suitable for harsh industrial environments, such as those involving galvanizing, pickling, or other heavy-duty processing operations.
