Laumas TFAST Load Cell Mounting Kit

The Laumas TFAST is a mounting kit for industrial weighing systems using compatible FCAX and FCAL bending beam load cells. It is intended for tension weighing arrangements with an application range up to 500 kg, making it relevant for compact process weighing assemblies, machinery integration and specialist OEM installations where the mechanical load path must be controlled.

The kit combines an AISI 304 stainless steel lower plate with an aluminium alloy tension ball joint. This construction provides a defined mounting interface between the supported structure and the load cell assembly. Correct mechanical installation is important: the mounting kit should be selected alongside the load cell capacity, support structure, load direction and any site-specific movement or alignment requirements.

For engineers and weighing system integrators, TFAST offers a practical solution where a bending beam load cell needs to operate in a tension configuration rather than as a simple compression-mounted element. The inclusion of a locking screw assists during transport and installation, helping to protect the assembly before final commissioning.

Key Selection Points

• Product type: load cell mounting kit for tension applications.
• Compatible load cells: Laumas FCAX and FCAL bending beam load cells.
• Application range: up to 500 kg.
• Construction: AISI 304 stainless steel lower plate with aluminium alloy tension ball joint.
• Net weight: 1.5 kg.

Before ordering, confirm that the TFAST kit matches the intended load cell model and the mechanical arrangement of the weighing system. Mounting hardware should not be selected on capacity alone; structure stiffness, load introduction, fixing position and environmental exposure can all affect weighing performance and service life.

GNW Instrumentation supplies the Laumas TFAST mounting kit for industrial weighing projects, replacement work and new equipment builds. For systems where compatibility is uncertain, check the existing load cell identification and mounting arrangement before specifying this kit.
