Load Cell
A load cell is a transducer which converts a value of force into a proportional electrical signal. Load cells are critical elements of universal testing systems. All Instron load cells are individually temperature-compensated and tested for accuracy and repeatability on a calibration apparatus that is traceable to international standards, with a measurement of uncertainty that does not exceed one-third of the permissible error of the load cell. Instron's Massachusetts headquarters houses the largest commercial deadweight stack in the United States, which allows Instron load cells to often exceed the level of accuracy required by most materials testing standards.
2519 Series Static Load Cells
Instron® load cells are an integral part of a materials testing system. The 2519 Series load cells are specifically designed for use with Instron’s 3300 Single column testing systems. The design, manufacture, and performance verification is conducted with materials testing applications in mind and the cells are certified in accordance with international standards.
