SQB Load cell

Keli SQB Load Cell

Description

The Keli SQB Load Cell is one of the types of load cells produced by Keli. It has a threaded load hole configuration which converts applied shear stress into an electrical signal output. It is highly recommended for applications with much electronic weighing equipment like tracks, trucks, and hoppers. The SQB load cells are made from either stainless steel or alloy steel. Alloy steel is known for its strength and ability to handle large loads.

Built Material

The Keli SQB load cell is manufactured using either stainless steel or alloy steel. This ensures the load cell’s improved hardness, durability, toughness, and ability to withstand corrosion. This load cell is commonly used in floors scales, and tank weighing devices.

Accuracy                                               

The weighing accuracy class of the Keli SQB load cell is OIM C3. The C3 accuracy class is given to load cells with high accuracy specification. Load cells in the C3 Accuracy Class classification are mostly used with weighing machines used for tank weighing and light scales.

Maximum Capacity

The maximum compression force capacity of SQB load cells ranges from 0.1t to 10t. Overload is allowed but to a certain extent only.

Safe Overload

The maximum safe overload capacity of this load cell is 150% of its maximum load capacity. Exceeding 150% may put the load cell in danger of being deformed.

Ultimate Overload

The maximum overload allowed is 180% of the maximum load capacity. Exceeding 180% will deform the load cell and cause inaccurate measurements.

Common Problems

Load cells need to be properly mounted in the right position. Improper mounting of the load cells will result into wrong readings and inaccurate results. Overloading weighing device is sometimes unavoidable which may result permanent deformation of the load cell. Permanent load cell deformation will make calibration impossible. Another common problem with load cells is electrical damage. Being exposed to significant electrical currents damage the resistors in the load cells.
