Used Load Cells

What Are the Types of Load Cells Offered by JM Industrial?

At JM Industrial, we offer various types of used and surplus load cells for your industrial applications. All used interface load cells offered by us can be categorized into the following:

• Strain Gauge Load Cells:A strain gauge load cell is a force or strain measuring device with an application of a wire bonded strain gauge. These cells are quite popular and can be used in almost all industrial applications. Our strain gauge load cells assure accuracies within 0.03% to 0.25%.
• Hydraulic Load Cells:Hydraulic cells use a force-balance method to measure fluid pressure. A hydraulic load cell is equipped with a cylindrical device and a piston that transfers the change in pressure. The pressure in these load cells is measured using hydraulic fluid. As hydraulic cells do not contain any electrical components, they can easily be used for hazardous applications.
• Pneumatic Load Cells:Pneumatic load cells also work on the principle based on force balance. It contains multiple dampener chambers and is generally used in more minor weight applications. The basic requirement of these cells is cleanliness, and hence they are used in clean and dry environments. Pneumatic load cells are excellent for applications that require 100% cleanliness.
• Capacitive Load Cells:Capacitor load cells have simple construction but can measure the load very efficiently. These load cells are equipped with a series of capacitors that measures the load in a load cell. In a capacitor load cell, the load on it pushes the plates towards each other, which generates energy between the two plates. The energy is then transferred into a voltage that displays the weight of the load.

What Is the Working Principle of Load Cells?

A load cell is a force transducer that contains different geotechnical components and makes them work altogether to measure the weight. The main working principle of a load cell is based on voltage measurement. When a load is placed on the load cell, it gets measured in electrical output. When the weight is applied to the load cell, the electrical charge changes proportionally and shows on display.

What Are the Benefits of Using Load Cells?

There are several benefits of using used and surplus load cells as compared with the new ones. Some of their excellent benefits are as follows:

• The most beneficial thing about using used and surplus load cells is that it costs you significantly less compared to newer ones.
• These used and surplus load cells can be the best option for your startup.
• They can be easily added to your existing equipment fleet.
• All used and surplus load cells are included here after careful testing, so they help eliminate frequent maintenance.
• The load cells that we offer are ready for shipment, and hence it will cut down the waiting time.
• Using industrial load cells will help you cut down your carbon footprint in two ways – they are not ending in landfills, and energy-intensive manufacturing is not involved.

How to Choose Load Cells for Your Application?

We offer a wide range of used and surplus load cells for various industrial applications. However, a wide variety may make it challenging for you to choose the right match for your application. The tips given below will help you in selecting the suitable load cell for your application:

• Load Cell Types:Before finalizing a load cell for your application, you must go through different types of load cells. This will help you understand the type of load cell best suited for your application.
• Check the Operating Environment:When it comes to checking the environment of the application, it not only talks about the temperature of the environment but also about the cleanliness of the environment. There are various load cells that primarily work in clean environments, and some are ideal for hazardous applications. Choose a load cell according to the environment of your applications.
• Load Cell Shapes:This is one of the most essential points to be considered before finalizing a load cell for your industrial application. There are different types of shapes available in load cells, so you must choose a load cell that suits your application.
• Size Requirements:Size requirement includes the height, width, length, and weight of your application. Each application has its own specifications, and according to that, a load cell must be chosen.
