TLC SENSOR SELECTION
Four geometries.
One clear load path.
Compare the measurement arrangement first. Capacity, threads, sealing, calibration and output are confirmed for the selected model.
01 / TLC-SBMS-Beam Tension & Compression Load Cells
Axial force measurement for tensile test machines, suspended weighing and automated test fixtures. Start with the load case, then match the thread and signal chain.

03 / TLC-WEBCantilever Web & Wire Tension Load Cells
Single-ended flange-mounted cantilever roll sensors for narrow webs, plus three-pulley geometries for wire, yarn and filament. Size for resultant roller force and the actual material path.

04 / TLC-ROPPermanent Wire Rope Clamp & Chain Tension Measurement
Permanently installed rope clamp sensing for running-load monitoring, overload indication and slack-rope detection. Chain measurements require a separately rated chain-compatible assembly.

Filter by force, geometry and signal
These configuration references organise an engineering enquiry. Listed envelopes describe the scope to discuss across variants; exact capacity, dimensions, availability and approvals are confirmed on the model documentation.
| Configuration / use | Force enquiry envelope | Signal requests | Interface review | Next step |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TLC-SBM-2MV 2.0 mV/V S-beam enquiry | 5N–20 metric tf across configurations | 2.0 mV/V bridge / 4–20 mA / 0–10 V / RS485 Modbus | Metric M6–M36, model dependent Confirm capacity-specific dimensions, thread depth, bridge resistance and calibration direction. | Review this configuration → |
| TLC-SBM-3MV 3.0 mV/V S-beam enquiry | 5N–20 metric tf across configurations | 3.0 mV/V bridge | UNF 1/4-28 through 1-1/4-12, model dependent Match sensitivity, excitation, wiring and complete thread callout before replacing a sensor. | Review this configuration → |

| TLC-WEB-IOL Smart cantilever tension configuration | Roller force confirmed by geometry | M12 IO-Link | Single-ended flange + M12 signal chain Confirm force direction, controller scaling and IODD for the actual transmitter. | Review this configuration → |
| TLC-LNK-CBL Cabled proof-load link enquiry | 1–500 metric tf across configurations | 2.0 mV/V bridge / 4–20 mA / RS485 Modbus | Shackle pin / jaw clearance by approved drawing Working load, proof-load target and minimum breaking-load evidence are separate requirements. | Review this configuration → |
| TLC-LNK-WLS Wireless load-link enquiry | 1–500 metric tf across configurations | Wireless handheld kit | Matched rated shackle assembly Confirm region, readout protocol, update rate, battery and signal-loss behaviour. | Review this configuration → |
| TLC-HOK Integrated hook load-path review | 1–30 metric tf requested scope | Wireless handheld kit / 4–20 mA | Hook swivel / latch / overhead clearance A dedicated hook assembly requires its own rated load path and approval; not a link accessory assumption. | Review this configuration → |
| TLC-WTSTL Stainless marine link review | 5–100 metric tf requested scope | Wireless handheld kit / 4–20 mA / RS485 Modbus | Shackle interfaces and material/environment review Confirm 316L material, sealing, immersion conditions and antenna location; do not assume radio transmission through water. | Review this configuration → |
| TLC-LNK-STG Low-visibility stage link review | 0.5–5 metric tf requested scope | Wireless handheld kit | Suspension geometry / finish review Specify required minimum breaking load, finish and applicable approvals; a reduced WLL is not certification. | Review this configuration → |
| TLC-HTL Hollow-anchor tensioning review | 100–2,000kN requested scope | 4–20 mA / 2.0 mV/V bridge | Bore / seating / distribution plate review Identify whether force is inferred from hydraulic pressure or measured by an annular strain-gauge element. | Review this configuration → |
