Tedea Huntleigh 1004 – High‑Precision Load Cell for Low‑Capacity Weighing
Accurate, Reliable, and Long‑Term Performance for Precision Weighing Needs
In applications where every gram matters, the Tedea Huntleigh 1004 load cell delivers exceptional measurement fidelity and repeatability. Whether used in laboratory instruments or low‑capacity counting scales, the Model 1004 combines precise engineering with rugged environmental protection to support consistent weighing performance.
What is the Tedea Huntleigh 1004?
The Tedea Huntleigh 1004 is an aluminum single‑point load cell designed to measure compressive forces in low‑capacity systems. With a rated output of approximately 0.9 mV/V and total error better than 0.0067 % of Rated Output (R.O.), it supports high‑resolution weight measurement up to 30,000 divisions in stable ambient conditions. Its compact design supports platforms up to 200 × 200 mm, making it suitable for bench scales, analytical balances, and precision weight measurement solutions.
Key Features of the Model 1004
- Wide Capacity Range (0.3 kg – 3 kg): Suitable for low‑load weighing tasks with high precision.
- Aluminum Construction: Combines lightweight design with structural strength.
- Single‑Point Platform Support: Enables stable measurements even with slightly off‑center loads.
- IP66 Environmental Protection: Provides resistance against dust ingress and powerful water jets (ideal for challenging environments).
- High Precision and Low Error: Total error better than 0.0067 % of R.O., ensuring accurate readings.
- Humidity‑Resistant Coating: Two‑stage protective layer enhances reliability and long‑term stability.
- Overload Protection Integration: Threaded hole on the loading end simplifies the integration of mechanical overload protection.
How It Works
Like other high‑precision load cells, the Model 1004 uses strain gauge technology to translate applied compressive force into an electrical signal. When weight is applied to the load cell’s platform, the internal strain element deforms while bonded strain gauges detect the minute change. These resistance changes are then converted into a standardized electrical output that can be read by weight indicators, PLCs, or automation systems for accurate measurement and control.
This makes the Model 1004 ideal for precision measurement systems requiring real‑time weight feedback and high repeatability.
