Process \/ VDW Self-Centering Pressure Load Cell"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>VDW Self-Centering Pressure Load Cell<\/h2>\n<p><strong>APPLICATION<br \/>\n<\/strong>Acting as a measuring transducer, the load cell converts the mechanical input variable (load) into the electrical output variable (voltage).<br \/>\nThe VDW has been consistently optimized for use in vehicle scales.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The design of the cell as a self-straightening stabilizer link keeps transverse forces away, even if the bridge is significantly displaced horizontally.<\/li>\n<li>The design allows rapid and cost-effective assembly without expensive mounting parts.<\/li>\n<li>Matching accessories and fitting aids simplify installation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>CONSTRUCTION<br \/>\n<\/strong><span style=\"color: #65676b;\">Hermetically sealed thanks to laser welding (IP68)<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>High corrosion protection through the use of rustproof materials, including high-grade steel cable screw connections<\/li>\n<li>Built-in over-voltage protection<\/li>\n<li>All electrical components are located inside the load cell and are therefore optimally protected<\/li>\n<li>Laser-welded construction, protection class IP68 (1 m immersion depth \/ 100 hr) or IP69K (steam jet cleaning)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>FUNCTION<br \/>\n<\/strong><span style=\"color: #65676b;\">High measuring sensitivity<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>High reproducibility<\/li>\n<li>High long-term stability and consistently high accuracy over time<\/li>\n<li>Characteristic value and output impedance of the VDW are matched so that corner-load comparison in multiple-cell scales is generally unnecessary<\/li>\n<li>The optimized screening concept (no conductive connection between cable screen and load cell body) provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full
