Load Cell Indicators
Procter & Chester Measurements Ltd
The instrumentation will power the load cell. The mV/V signal coming back from the load cell is converted by the indicator and displays the force in a unit (e.g.: Kg, kN, lb – customers choice). The indicators within this range are encased so that the operator can either use it on the move (if battery powered) or be a permanent fixture, e.g.: wall mounted.

Radio Telemetry
Procter & Chester Measurements Ltd
Radio Telemetry: A transmission of data from a remote source via a radio to a receiving station for recording and analysis. Inductance: A contactless method of supplying power to (in this case) a strain gauge bridge. The signal is then transmitted back to the electronics. Slip Ring: Consists of a conductive band mounted on a shaft and is insulated from it. The wheatstone bridge is connected to the bands (usually four off). Fixed brushes or contacts make contact on to the bands to transfer power to the bridge and signal back to the static instrumentation.

Load Cell Indicators
Procter & Chester Measurements Ltd
The instrumentation will power the load cell. The mV/V signal coming back from the load cell is converted by the indicator and displays the force in a unit (e.g.: Kg, kN, lb – customers choice). The indicator will need to be mounted in to a case or control rack for safe use.

Displacement Transducers
Procter & Chester Measurements Ltd
Pressure: Measures gas or liquid pressure. Pressure is an expression of the force required to stop a fluid from expanding. The transducer generates a signal from the pressure imposed upon it. Torque: Measures the torque (or twisting motion) on a static or rotating system. The static torque element has little movement and therefore more economic to manufacture and purchase. Rotary or dynamic torque is more complicated as the signal needs to be transferred using slip rings, wireless telemetry or rotary transformers/inductance technology so that the strain gauged shaft can continuously rotate. Displacement: Measures distance. The displacement transducers that PCM offer are slightly different to standard units. They have a strain gauge/wheatstone bridge. The benefit here is that if the customer has existing electronics that uses strain gauge/load cell technology, they can use them with these sensors.
