Load Cell and Amplifier Set – PASPORT

Product Code: PS-2199

Description

Measure the forces at any location in structures you build with any PASCO Structures System–this set provides 4 Load Cells and a Load Cell Amplifier to get you started.

Any I-beam in a structure can be substituted for two smaller I-beams connected to a Load Cell to measure forces at that location. Each amplifier can accept 6 Load Cells and if additional cells are needed, multiple amplifiers can be connected to a single computer through a PASCO interface.

Both Load Cell Amplifier and Load Cells are also available separately.

  • Insert Load Cells anywhere in Structures Sets
  • Measure tension and compression forces
  • Each Amplifier accepts up to 6 Load Cells

How It Works

A load cell can be inserted into the design by replacing one beam with a load cell connected to two shorter beams. There is no need to completely disassemble the structure to add instrumentation.
