INTERFACE 101 ATEX

Hazardous Locations ATEX 101

Interface offers a comprehensive range of ATEX-certified products, designed to ensure safety in hazardous locations. An ATEX (atmosphere explosive) certification is given to equipment that conforms to the requirements of the European Union's harmonized standards for equipment used in potentially explosive atmospheres. These intrinsically safe products, including amplified and non-amplified ATEX-certified load cells, load pins, load shackles, load links, instrumentation, and accessories, are your reliable devices designed for test and measurement projects and OEM components. They are also backed by IECEx and North American certifications, further validating their safety standards.
INTERFACE 101 UNIVERSAL

Universal Load Cells 101

Interface Universal Load Cells offer the ability to measure both tension and compression forces. They are versitile force measurement solutions used for all types of applications that need to measure force, weight and shear. Interface’s Model 1200 and 1201 Series IO-Link Universal Load Cells are pancake style load cells that are IO-Link compatible with an open standard serial communication protocol that allows for the bi-directional exchange of data from sensors and devices.
INTERFACE 101 SERIES CALIBRATION CURVE

Calibration Curve 101

Interface Calibration Curve 101 defines why the calibration curve is essential for ensuring the accuracy of force measurements. The calibration curve allows for the determination of the load cell's sensitivity, linearity, and any potential adjustments or corrections needed to improve its accuracy. For traceability, serves as a reference to convert the load cell's output signal into meaningful and calibrated measurements when the load cell is used for force or weight measurement applications. Interface recommends all load cells be calibrated annually, at a minimum.
INTERFACE 101 SERIES SIGNAL CONDITIONERS

Signal Conditioners 101

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.
