Interface offers several types of digital instrumentation devices that transform load cell and strain bridge input into digital data output in numerous protocols and bus formats. Learn about digital instrumentation used in test measurement and why engineers prefer digital.
Interface offers a wide range of wireless telemetry products including load cells, transmitters, bases, communication modules and data acquisition systems. A wireless telemetry system enables the remote measurement and transmission of data from one location to another without the need for physical wired connections. Components in wireless telemetry systems typically include sensors, transducers, instrumentation, communication modules, transmitters, displays and printers.

Interface load cell indicators convert force measurement sensor signals to a digital display. Indicator options include handheld, digital, wireless, multichannel, programmable, output modules, analog and bidirectional.
Interface Bluetooth Telemetry System is a wireless system that uses Bluetooth technology to remotely transmit data from sensors, including load cells or other devices to a receiving device, typically a smartphone or tablet. The Interface Bluetooth Telemetry System (BTS) transmits high-quality data from load cells to single and multiple devices. It offers various benefits, including high accuracy, high resolution, IP-rated enclosures, and multiple configuration options. The quality of Interface load cell performance is fully realized by utilizing the convenience of this system, which acts as a data bridge between the load cell and a display device.
A load cell simulator is a device that mimics the electrical signal of a load cell. This allows technicians to test and calibrate measurement systems without applying physical force or weight to the load. Interface load cell simulators are an essential accessory and valuable investment for any testing lab or research facility frequently using load cells. These simulators can help to improve safety, reduce downtime, improve accuracy, lower costs, and increase convenience.
Interface Signal Conditioners are used with a wide range of load cell and force measurement devices. Transducers convert force or weight into an electrical signal. The output signal of a load cell is typically in the form of a small electrical voltage that is proportional to the applied force. Primary features of signal conditioners include amplification, filtering, isolation, and linearization. As detailed in Signal Conditioners 101, it can perform various functions depending on the specific application and the type of signals.
Load pins are a type of load cell that replaces bolts, clevis, sheave equalizer pins, and load-bearing components to measure tensile and compression forces. Interface standard and custom load pins are used in lifting devices, structures, energy and submersible applications.
When testing small, compact and complex products, Interface Load Button Load Cells are precision sensor technology miniaturized to fit small-scale applications. LBM and LBS Models available to ship now with QS48.
Interface tension and compression load cells are used for strain testing across multiple industries. Learn about strain testing, a very common in general test and measurement applications. Strain refers to the deformation or shape a material experiences due to applied stress. Load cells are used to measure how much a sample or material stretches, compresses, or shears and distorts in response to a force.
