Application 138: How to measure a Turkey Feast

In honour of our American Friends who will be celebrating their "Thanksgiving" Holiday later today. Futek the sensor specialists have come up with an application on how to measure the Turkey Feast using their  Low Profile Load Cells, Junction Box and Hand Held or Panel Mount Display.

Application Summary

Precision scale platforms require the most-accurate load measurements. In celebration of the Thanksgiving Holiday, FUTEK utilised four overload-protected low profile load cells to weigh the coveted turkey dinner.

Products in Use

Four Low Profile Load Cells (LRF Family) paired with FUTEK's IAC200 Summing Junction Box alongside the IHH500 or IPM650. View Product Details

How it Works

1. Precision scales require high-accuracy, compression load cells.
2. In the above illustration, FUTEK celebrated the Thanksgiving Holiday by conceptually showing how our LRF Low Profile Load Cells can be used to create a meticulous feedback system.
3. Mounted to all four corners of the platform, these load cells (equipped with overload protection) will measure the weight (load) of whichever "feast" item happens to be placed upon it.
4. As the load fluctuates, FUTEK's IAC200 Summing Junction Box will collect the individual load cell measurements, sending the final weigh-in to either our IHH500 Handheld Display or IPM650 Panel Mount.
5. Watch the IPM650's extraordinary performance and resolution here.
