Integration units of load cells
The embedding unit is an element that ensures the correct integration of the load cell in the weighing system. The embedding unit is as important a component of the weighing equipment as the load cell. An incorrectly installed sensor is a guarantee of incorrect operation of the weighing system. Therefore, the costs of finalizing and correcting defects can be equal to the cost of new equipment. Specialists of the company "Keli Ukraine" will help you choose all important elements for scales that will guarantee the reliability of your equipment.
The device and the principle of operation of integration units
Factors that must be taken into account when selecting a load cells are also important when choosing an embedding unit. These include: the largest weighing limit (NPI), execution material, number of supports and other operational features.
In addition to the correct load transfer, the embedding nodes can perform a number of functional tasks, including: protection against overturning, overloading and vibration, protection against shock and lateral loads, protection against rotation of the sensor in the node and much more.
Designs of integration units
The pendulum design of the unit provides protection against lateral loads on the strain gauge. When lateral loads are applied to the strain gauge, the embedment node due to the hinge prevents twisting of the sensor, which ensures stable and correct operation of the entire system. Field of application: hanging hopper scales, conveyor scales and other weighing systems.
The assembly with an elastomeric support is intended for use in systems and structures subject to vibration or shock loads. The influence of vibration during rigid mounting can negatively affect the operation of the sensor and even reduce its service life. The same result is expected if the load receiving device is subjected to a shock load. In such cases, it is worth using an elastomer that absorbs most of the impact by means of a shock-absorbing material.
This type of units is designed mainly for weighing tanks, silos, elevators and other scales that are affected by frequent side loading. Many bunkers, which are installed vertically on the street, have a large buoyancy under the influence of the wind. In order to avoid emergency situations, built-in units with protection against overturning are used. A design feature is the presence of protective elements that prevent the hopper (container) from tipping over.
