OMEGA’s DLC101 dynamic
load cell is ideal for measuring
force transients or dynamic
force pulsations in impact or
vibration applications. This load
cell contains a thin piezoelectric
crystal that generates an analog
voltage signal in response to
an applied dynamic force. The
DLC101 has 2 threaded ends,
enabling installation of threaded
members such as mounting
studs, impact caps, and machine
elements. Its welded construction
encloses and protects the crystals
from the environment.
