Load Cell Calibration Standard

The calibration standard iso 376 also available under the european denomination en iso 376 has been developed within the scope of the normalisation of metallic materials and is entitled.

Load cell calibration standard.

Calibration of force measurement instruments used for the verification of uniaxial testing machines. For secondary standard reference force dynamometers i e. The system can be set for up to 39 calibration points. Iso9000 and most other standards specify a maximum period of around 18 months to 2 years between re calibration procedures dependent on the level of load cell deterioration.

Load cell calibration in a typical two channel system one channel is connected to the reference standard load cell and one channel is connected to the load cell being calibrated. Annual re calibration is considered best practice by many load cell users for ensuring the most accurate measurements. Our gs sys gold standard calibration system consists of a four post rigid load frame proprietary load feedback loop signal conditioning. The 1800 platinum standard series is machined with an integral stud and has a 2 lower load limit.

We offer strain gage load cell calibration systems for nearly any force measurement application including custom designs. Transfer reference force transducers iso 376. Standardisation of metallic materials. All of these high accuracy load cells can be supplied with calibration and certification to internationally recognised standards including bs en iso 376 astm e74 and ukas.

Two categories of load cells are differentiated. In the majority of cases these load cells are supplied with digital instrumentation to provide a fully certified stand alone load or for measurement system. It deals more generally with calibration methods.
