Two ranges of Load Cells:Load cells are available in two different ranges: ±100 N and ± 5 N. These load cells aredesigned to be inserted into structures without changing the length of the member. A loadcell attached to two shorter beams is equal in length to a longer beam. Both types of loadcells can be used with the same amplifier in any combination. The semi-transparent caselets students see the strain gauge and beam inside.Load Cell100NPS-2200Load Cell5NPS-2201PASPORT – Force/DisplacementLoad Cell 5N(PS-2201)SpecificationsRange: -100 N to +100 NAccuracy: ±1% (± 1 N)Resolution: 0.02 NSafe Overload: -150 N to +150 NSpecificationsRange: -5 N to +5 NAccuracy: ±1% (±0.05 N)Resolution: 0.001 NSafe Overload: -7.5 N to +7.5 NOrder Information:Order Information:100 N Load Cell* ...............PS-2200 5 N Load Cell* ......................PS-22012 1/4”Load Cell 100N(PS-2200)Mix 5N and 100N load cells on the same amplifier.Dual Load Cell AmplifierPS-2205This new Load Cell Amplifier is for applications where only one ortwo load cells are needed, such as measuring the force on the trackat the top and bottom of a roller coaster loop. If you only want toexamine the forces in a bridge one at a time, you can move a singleload cell around in the bridge.The Amplifier accepts either the 100N load cell or the 5N load cellor a combination of both. The maximum data sample rate is 1000Hz for each port.It is also an inexpensive way to add sensors to your structures.Later, if you want to expand the number of load cells you are using,you can add another Dual Load Cell Amplifier or a 6-port Load CellAmplifier (PS-2198). All PASCO load cell amplifiers can work simultaneouslyon one computer. A PASCO PASPORT USB interface isrequired: Use a USBLink (PS-2100A) for just one Load Cell Amplifieror use an Xplorer GLX (PS-2002) or PowerLink (PS-2001) formultiple Load Cell Amplifiers.Order Information:Dual Load Cell Amplifier* ..................................................................PS-2205Required for Use:PASPORT Interface .....................................................................................p. 8-9Load Cell 100N .................................................................................................PS-2200Load Cell 5N........................................................................................................PS-2201Measure bridge deflection witha Displacement SensorDisplacement SensorPS-2204The PS-2204 Displacement Sensormeasures the travel of a spring-loadedindicator pressed against a bridge asthe bridge is loaded. It consists of aPASPORT sensor which plugs intothe included Digital Indicator, a digitaltravel indicator which has its owndigital LED readout and can be usedas a stand-alone device. When thePASPORT sensor is plugged into aPASPORT interface, the reading canbe recorded.See pages 171-172 for more uses.SpecificationsMaximum Travel: 10 mm N to +100 NMaximum Sample Rate: 5 HzResolution: 0.013 mm (0.0005 in)PS-2204 Includes:SensorBracketDial GaugeAlso available at a discount:Load Cell andDual Amplifier Set* ..............PS-2206Set Includes:Dual Load Cell Amplifier (PS-2205)Load Cell 100N (PS-2200)Required for use: PASPORT Interface (p. 8-9)Order Information:Displacement Sensor ................................................................PS-2204Shown in use with:Hooked Mass Set ...........................................................................SE-8759 p. 223Small “A” Base ...................................................................................ME-8976 p. 21260 cm long Steel Rod (threaded)...............................ME-8977 p. 212Required for use: PASPORT Interface (p. 8-9)33
