How Do You Know if Your Load Cell Needs Calibration Service or Repair?

Interface Calibration and Repair Services answers when a load cell might need repair. One sign is if the zero balance has shifted significantly since it was first installed. This could indicate that the load cell has been overloaded or damaged. Another sign is if the output varies significantly when the same load is applied. This could also indicate a mechanical issue.If you suspect that your load cell is damaged, you can perform a quick diagnostic check using an ohmmeter. This will help you determine if the bridge circuitry and zero balance are within specifications. If not, then the load cell should be sent to Interface for further evaluation and repair.

How Load Cells Can Go Bad

Load cells are electronic devices that measure the force applied to them. Interface products are made to last, in fact we have many load cells that are in-market and being used for high-accuracy testing that were manufactured decades ago. Why do they last? Quality of design, material construction, build process, calibration, and regular maintenance will prolong the life of a load cell. Like any electronic device, load cells can go bad for a few reasons. It is also important to know that load cells can be repaired. If you are concerned about whether your load cell is working properly, do a quick health check and request an evaluation from Interface.
