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 analogue 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.
