In short it depends.
Load cell vs flow meter.
They have 0 2 or better linearity in capacities from 2 2 to 1 000 lbf.
Except for certain laboratories where precision mechanical balances are still used strain gage load cells dominate the weighing industry.
Omega s load cells are compact rugged and constructed with the highest quality alloy steel.
Load cells offer a particular benefit when dealing with products that don t usually work well with flow meters.
High accuracy 0 75 to 1 diameter miniature inline load cells lcfd.
Liquids with entrained air or bubbles may give meters trouble but they are no problem for load cells.
Another common argument for flow meters is that multiple flow meters allow for the addition of multiple ingredients at once while the use of load cells require ingredients to be added one at a time.
Pneumatic load cells are sometimes used where intrinsic.
They offer a wide flow and application rangeability.
We have an array of different load cells available including bending beam models platform load.
If you re measuring bulk quantities of dry goods in an environmentally neutral condition and don t need to be extremely precise better than 0 1 lbs then you re fine with load cells.
A load cell measures the weight of the tank itself so delays are minimized.
A load cell is a transducer which converts force into a measurable electrical output.
Turbine flow meter is the most popular equipment to measure flow electronically.
Coriolis meters which should i use.
