5. LOAD CELL
Load cell is a strain gauge-based type with full wheat-stone bridge configuration. Structure of
the load cell is such that it can be loaded both in tension and compression over few million
numbers of times. Following Load cells shall be supplied along with the tensile tester

Load Cells are calibrated against NPL/NCCBM certified Proving Ring conforming to NABL
norms with a measuring accuracy of < +1% of Indicated load for each load cell. The reading of
the selected load cell would be displayed on software screen.
Note: Only one load cell can be used in the machine at a time
