Tension And Compression
Load Cell • Model 3397
WARNING – SEE SAFETY E INSIDE TO AVOID THE POTENTIAL FOR PERSONAL INJURY.
Ús previst
This load cell may be used in either tension or compression. It is a general purpose unit for application in dynamometers, weighing, test stands and similar devices.
Nota de seguretat
Personal injury to the operator, as well as damage to equipment, can result if the load cell is operated with an improper combination of main axis load and extraneous load. To avoid catastrophic failure (separation of load cell structure), the load must be limited to 100% of the main axis nominal load limit combined with 200% of any one of the extraneous load limits from the chart on page 4. If 200% of a main axis load limit is applied, no other extraneous loads can be combined with it.
To avoid non-catastrophic failure (degradation of specifications) of the load cell, the load restrictions given in the chart on page 4 must be observed.
Certificate of Conformance and Calibration Traceability
This is to certify that the products described herein meet the specifications and performance requirements described in this manual. Test reports and other pertinent information are on file and available for inspection by your representative and/or the U.S. Government representative upon request.
Calibration was performed with a test system utilizing a reference load cell or deadweights and an electronic indicator. The test system was within current calibration requirements at the time of the test and is traceable to the NIST.

Principis de funcionament
The Model 3397 load cell is a precision designed structure which has exceptional capability to withstand extraneous loads such a torque, side loads and bending moments (see table on page 4).
Force applied to the cell is translated into an electrical signal by means of changes in electrical resistance of strain gages bonded to the interior structure of the unit.
The strain gages are connected in a 4 arm (Wheatstone bridge) configuration network. This arrangement allows temperature compensation as well as largely cancelling signals caused by extraneous loading.
A fixed excitation voltage is applied between A and D of the bridge. Load applied to the structure unbalances the bridge causing an output voltage to appear between B and C. This voltage is proportional to the applied load.
Instal·lació
The Model 3397 load cell may be operated either horizontally or vertically or any angle in between provided the load is applied straight through the loading axis, i.e., on the center line of the threaded holes. The cell is sealed and compensated for normal barometric changes. It will withstand operation in areas of high humidity, but is not intended to be immersed.
For use in which both tension and compression forces may be applied (such as in a trunion mounted dynamometer), use of spherical rod end bearings is recommended. For compression only, a load button should be mounted at the top of the cell.
NOTA: Load button thread thread length must be 5/16″ ± 1/16″. Torque the load button to 30 in. lbs. Rod ends should be threaded into the center holes until they bottom out, then backed out one turn. Torque the rod end until they bottom out then backed out one tum Taroue the rod end jam nuts to 30 in. lbs.
Wiring (Each bridge)

- – EXC. BLACK

When connected as shown, output goes up-scale (positive) for tension loads. WESTERN Regional Code.
Use only shielded cable to connect the cell to the indicator. The use of Belden Cable (or equivalent quality) is recommended. Use Belden 8723 for cable 20 feet or less. Use Belden 8725 for cables over 20 feet.
Use 60/40 rosin core solder for connections and clean with rosin solvent after soldering. Check all connections for continuity. There should be at least 5000 megohms resistance between adjacent pins of the cable when it is disconnected at both ends. Connections at the readout instrument are to be according to the instrument manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTA: A connector mating with the cell (Bendix PTO-6-W10-6S) is supplied with the cell.

SHUNT CALIBRATION: An electrical signal equivalent to that produced by a known load can be obtained by shunting one arm of the load cell’s strain gage bridge with a precision wire-wound resistor. Shunt resistor and equivalent load values for this load cell are shown above. They are determined during factory calibration of the load cell.
Solució de problemes
1. Check power and load cell connections to the indicator.
2. Check load cell cable for correct interconnection with indicator in use.
3. Verify the cell’s excitation and signal resistance as shown on page 3.
Precaució: Ohmmeter should not apply more than 10 volts to the load cell bridge.
4. Check bridge resistance to ground (case of cell) with a 50 volt megohmmeter. Should be greater than 5K megaohms.

Extraneous Load Considerations
Excessive side loads and bending moments applied to a load cell will degrade its accuracy and may damage it. Care should be exercised to insure that forces are applied to parallel to, and in-line with, the cell’s measurement axis.
