Tension accessories are components designed to facilitate the precise measurement of tensile forces in industrial systems. They are intended to complement load cells and ensure that the measurement system operates reliably and accurately in applications requiring the measurement of tensile forces.
Operating principle in tension measurement systems
Tension accessories, such as hooks and fastening devices, help apply the load in a controlled manner to the load cells. Their main function is to ensure that forces are transmitted correctly to achieve accurate measurements.
Importance of tension accessories for system accuracy
These accessories are crucial to avoid measurement errors, as they allow uniform load distribution and protect the load cell components from uncontrolled forces. Correct installation is essential to maintain the precision and reliability of the measurement system.
