Series 2500 & 2900 Precision Load Cells

Series 2500 & 2900 Precision Load Cells

Himmelstein Load Cells are sealed, low profile sensors suitable for precision force and weight measurements.  Measurement principle is strain gage and is compensated to eliminate temperature induced zero and span errors.  Sensor design provides exceptional tolerance of extraneous loads.
