ThruHoleLoadCellPRECISION THROUGH THE CENTERPRODUCTS BY STYLE / MT-AMP-KIT
Match bridge excitation, signal range, output interface and calibration to the sensor. Choose a summing box for a calibrated total, or independent channels to retain the force at each mounting point.

Dimensions above convert to mm in the reference. $260–$480 indicative bare-sensor range; MOQ one. Confirm the selected drawing, interface, calibration and dispatch in your quote.
Enter expected forces at top-left, top-right, bottom-right and bottom-left. Positive x points right and positive y points up from the rectangle center. This is an analytical planning worksheet, not connected instrument data.
Assumptions: four point reactions at known coplanar corner positions, same axial direction, no unmeasured support. The result does not identify a safe machine load or dynamic synchronization performance.
THROUGH HOLE LOAD CELL SELECTOR
LOAD INTRODUCTION / KEEP THE COVER CLEAR
The relieved cover protects the strain-gauge region. A washer must bear on the designated land without touching the cover or connecting the moving load to the fixed support.
Contact surface ≥40 HRC; flatness ≤0.01 mm. Matched washer option targets HRC 48 and ≤0.005 mm flatness. Confirm parallelism, loading-land diameters and installed stack height.
Raised hub steps and recess depth are specified on the selected drawing. Factory electrical pairing does not remove the need to assess force shunts, support flexibility or installed preload.
Read the mounting guide →BRIDGE / DEFLECTION / INTERFACE
| Parameter | Quotation specification | Selection consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Full Wheatstone bridge | 700 Ω preferred for FUTEK-family review; 350 / 1000 Ω options | Check excitation loading, output resistance and self-heating together. |
| Rated output | 1.5–2.0 mV/V nominal direction | Confirm actual calibrated span, zero and conditioner input range. |
| Excitation | By selected MT model and thermal review | FUTEK LTH300/400 list 18 V maximum; that value is not automatically assigned to every MT model. |
| Rated-load deflection | 0.02–0.05 mm design target for specified configurations | Request a model-specific value; axial stiffness k = F / δ. Thin large-bore designs need their own evaluation. |
| Natural frequency | Request the model/fixture data and bandwidth | Body frequency, assembled resonance, sampling rate and filter latency are different quantities. |
| Connector / identification | Cable, CC19, M5/M8/M12 or remote sense; optional TEDS33 | Check contact count, keying, pin assignment, sealing and reader/template compatibility. |
PROTOTYPE TO OEM / DIRECT QUOTATION
Illustrative configuration: $340 sensor + $25 washer pair + $145 standard conditioner = $510/set. Multi-channel, EtherCAT and special environmental options are quoted separately.
Volume quote bands: 1–4 prototypes; 5–19 pieces with a target 15% reduction; 20–49 pieces with a target 25% reduction; 50+ annual OEM agreement. Eligible ID/OD modifications target $0 NRE; new elastic-body designs require a separate review. Final pricing and dispatch appear in the formal quotation.

Choose the +$25 washer pair and +$145 standard conditioner options in your brief. The quote confirms the selected load interface, signal and calibration scope.
The original part number and revision, dimensions, loading faces, bridge resistance, excitation, pinout and calibration must match the accepted replacement specification.
