Energy Overview

Interface force measurement solutions are used in every facet of energy production from research and exploration, to monitoring equipment especially our oil and gas energy sensors. Load cells and torque transducers assist oil, gas, wind, coal, solar, and emerging energy companies to fuel the world. When our petroleum customers came to us requesting load cells that could withstand up to 30,000 psi and 500°F, we met the challenge with custom application-specific solutions.

Harsh Environments

Our moment and temperature compensated LowProfile™ load cells use proprietary alloy strain gages to provide the most accurate readings possible in the harshest environments, such as downhole drilling, wirelines, pipelines, and wind turbines. Interface tests every LowProfile™ load sensor for accuracy and temperature specifications, and moment compensates each unit to minimize sensitivity to extraneous loads. Using eight proprietary strain gages per sensor, our 4mV/V output which exceeds most other load cell performance specifications.

Windmill Energy

Our torque transducers have been used in instances for windmill energy. A customer wanted to improve their windmill by monitoring the torque being created by the windmills power ramps. Installing our T2 Ultra Precision Shaft Style Rotary Torque Transducer between the windmill propeller and the electric generator of the windmill, it resulted in accurate testing. Shaft Style Torque Transducer Couplings were also installed to ensure stability. This resulted in our customer being able to determine the optimal blade pitch for their windmill, thus being able to generate more energy.

With a variety of load cells, load buttons, force transducers, torque transducers and other Oil Gas Energy Sensors available, our applications engineers can help you design a measurement solution for your energy production needs.

Interface Pressure Compensated Downhole Load Cell

The downhole environment poses many challenges for well-drillers, operators, tool-string designers, and other engineers in the oil and gas industry. Obtaining accurate force measurements poses some real challenges in certain use cases based on the sensor technologies used and while these types of solutions are available, they fall short in performance, reliability, or capability. For example, the oil and gas industry has used “wet” load cells to monitor forces on their downhole load strings. These downhole load strings are equipped with a variety of sensors, and they travel down thousands of feet during exploratory drilling operations. The problem with wet load cells is that they don’t hold up for extended use in wells that extend several thousand feet underground and where there are extreme pressures and temperatures in a caustic environment. To address this issue, Interface created a “dry” load cell that protects the sensitive parts with innovative design, reduces the number of sensors required in the customer’s downhole load string, and allows the load cell to last 10 years or more.

Hazardous Locations

Energy production facilities often operate in risky conditions in the industrial world. From coal mines and petroleum refineries to offshore platforms, these environments demand precision equipment engineered to operate in dangerous environments.

In energy-producing settings, whether oil and gas or renewables, force measurement devices must not only deliver accurate data but do so safely, reliably, and in compliance with stringent global safety standards.

Hazardous energy sector locations are typically classified by their explosive risk level:

Zone 0 – An explosive gas or dust atmosphere is continuously present.
Zone 1 – An explosive atmosphere is likely during normal operation.
Zone 2 – An explosive atmosphere is not likely but may occur during abnormal conditions such as leaks.

Coal mines, refineries, hydrogen facilities, and pump jack operations frequently fall into these classifications, requiring measurement equipment with specialized construction, materials, and electronics.

Beyond explosive risk, these areas are simultaneously challenged by high temperatures, humidity, or water exposure, abrasive dust, vibration, and heavy mechanical loads. Equipment must therefore be ruggedized, sealed, and engineered to operate safely, while still maintaining accuracy.

Hydraulic Fracturing

Hydraulic fracturing is known in the energy sector as fracking. It is a process used for extracting oil and natural gas from underground. With natural gas consumption in the United States reaching a new record in 2024, methods to meet the demands require sensor-based solutions safely and efficiently.

Hydraulic fracturing is a means to expedite natural gas production. This method involves injecting a high-pressure fluid, often a mix of water, chemicals, and proppants, into the rock to create fractures. Proppant is a granular material like sand or ceramic beads injected into oil or gas wells at high pressure to hold open fractures in the rock formation, allowing for the extraction of energy sources.

As a supplier of choice in the energy sector, our load cells are integrated into the pumping systems, tension monitoring equipment, downhole simulators, wireline equipment, and wells.

Concerning hydraulic fracturing, Interface force measurement products help monitor the precise amount of proppant being pumped into the well. Interface sensor technologies are commonly used in hydraulic fracturing and proppant applications to measure the force or pressure exerted during fracking accurately.

We have developed standard and engineered-to-order solutions for these environments using our experience, technologies, and proprietary strain-gaged solutions specifically for downhole applications.

Examples of Interface Products for Hydraulic Fracturing

Interface Pressure Compensated Downhole Cell Model (IPCD) is pressure compensated up to 20,000 PSI, temperature compensated up to 350°F. It is superior to hydraulically compensated wet load cells, which have a short life expectancy and high operating costs
Axial Force Pressure (AFP) tension and compression load cell and a pressure transducer with 2 discrete Wheatstone bridges for output utilize a matrix conversion process to determine force and pressure.
Custom Load Pins in various sizes and capacities to work within fracturing equipment.

Load cells have precise measurement capabilities necessary for maintaining optimal fracking conditions. Overloading or underloading the well with proppant can result in suboptimal fracturing, compromising well productivity, or even causing structural damage to the wellbore.

Hydraulic Fracturing Applications Using Interface Sensor Technologies

Interface load cells are used in equipment for measuring factors that impact safety and environmental sustainability in hydraulic fracturing operations. For example, by accurately measuring forces exerted during proppant handling, load cells may lessen the risk of equipment failure or unintended environmental impacts.

Interface’s load cells and instrumentation provide precision, reliability, and real-time monitoring capabilities. The data we provide using our force sensors also helps evaluate the effectiveness of the hydraulic fracturing operation, thus optimizing future procedures for maximum output.

Accurate data is crucial for evaluating stress, predicting robotic wear, and enabling safe autonomous operations with maintenance based on real conditions. Interface offers high-resolution measurement products to keep energy hardware aligned with operational needs. Contact our engineers to discuss your robotic projects.

Energy Reserve Management

Energy reserve management (ERM) encompasses the technology, infrastructure, and mechanical systems that store, balance, dispatch, and secure secondary energy capacity in power grids. The modern energy reserve sector operates under strict grid-balancing mandates, where rapid response times, mechanical reliability, and structural integrity determine overall grid resilience. As renewable energy integrates into the global grid, utility operators and engineers rely on reserve mechanisms such as grid-scale batteries, pumped hydro, flywheels, gravity-based systems, and compressed gas storage.

Ensuring structural stability, safety, and operational readiness requires high-precision force and torque measurement. Mechanical settling, cell expansion, or pressure fluctuations can trigger battery runaway, turbine seizures, or grid outages, so operators rely on verified sensor data from load cells, torque transducers, multi-axis sensors, and instrumentation hardware to manage loads, monitor containment, and optimize storage dispatch.

Overcoming Mechanical Strain and Grid Storage Challenges

The main challenge in energy reserve testing is maintaining measurement stability over years of continuous cycling under broad thermal variations. In battery enclosures, lithium cells expand during charge-discharge cycles; unmonitored swelling can damage components or cause cell shorts. Detecting these micro-strain changes sensors that isolate subtle fluctuations across large structures without signal loss.

Without high-accuracy force, weight, and torque data, energy storage operators must rely on indirect estimates that do not reveal physical degradation, structural fatigue, or mechanical issues within storage units. If engineers cannot measure the swelling pressure in a battery pack or verify cable tension on a gravity storage hoist, systems may face sudden mechanical failures, fire hazards, and costly regulatory shutdowns during grid emergencies.
