The BERU f1systems NASCAR Spring Top Hat loadcell is a direct replacement for the standard spring top hat. It offers previously unseen levels of accuracy throughout the whole temperature range by incorporating a microprocessor controlled amplifier. the spring top hat has been specifically designed by BERU f1systems to work as a loadcell and offers very repeatable and accurate data that is not affected by ride height changes, spring 'wind up' or temperature changes.
A thrust bearing is fitted between the jack and the spring top hat loadcell that prevents the top hat from rotating during ride height adjustments, this also prevents torque from being applied to the spring top hat loadcell during spring 'wind up'.
The BERU f1systems microprocessor measures the temperature of the strain gauges, applies a correction at each temperature step for offset and span errors in the calibration. Thereby producing an output that is far more accurate than even the best compensated gauges. This allows all parts to have a generic calibration, which means that there is no need to enter a specific part calibration when changing loadcells. Each part is individually calibrated in a computer controlled oven over a full load and temperature range and each part retains its own unique calibration table.
