Compression Load Cells

Compression load cells are designed to be compact for use in limited spaces. Available in various types, including waterproof models and options for wide temperature ranges.

Coin-shaped load cells

Coin-shaped load cells are ultra-compact, disc-like sensors designed to measure compression force in tight or low-clearance spaces where standard sensors won’t fit.

LM series

Coin-Shaped Load Cell

The coin-shaped load cell is a standard model dedicated to compression testing, with a capacity of 20kN. A compressive force is applied to the protruding tip for accurate measurement.

CLFX series

Thin and Flat Type Load Cell

This thin, flat-type compression load cell has a capacity of 500N and is IP64-rated for dustproof and waterproof protection. Its large force-receiving area makes it ideal for testing soft or spherical samples.

CFX series

Small and Flat Type Load Cell

High Accuracy Coin-Shaped Load Cells

LC series

The coin-shaped load cell is designed for compression testing in narrow gaps. The compressive force is applied to the protruding tip for accurate measurements. It offers a capacity of 20kN.

Washer-type Load Cells

CHX series

This washer-type compression load cell has a capacity of 2000N and is IP64-rated for waterproof and dustproof protection. Its through-hole washer design makes it ideal for press-fit force measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a compression load cell?

A compression load cell is a force sensor designed to measure only push forces. It detects the amount of force applied in a downward or compressive direction and converts it into an electrical signal for accurate measurement.

What types of compression load cells does IMADA offer?

IMADA offers a wide range of compression load cells, including coin-shaped, rectangular, and waterproof models. These are designed to suit various applications, ranging from limited-space installations to harsh environments.

Are IMADA compression load cells suitable for compact or narrow spaces?

Yes, models like the coin-shaped and rectangular compression load cells are built specifically for use in tight or limited spaces, making them ideal for equipment integration or testing setups with space constraints.

Do IMADA compression load cells support waterproof applications?

Yes, certain models are fully waterproof, making them suitable for outdoor use or in environments with moisture, dust, or splash risks. These are ideal for food processing, packaging, or other industrial applications.
