Summary

The authors report on a compact loading cell for the continuous variation of uniaxial forces up to a few tons in low temperature investigations. The cell is based on a helium activated bellow and a mechanical force amplification system. The pressure in the bellow is controlled by a simple proportional-integral regulator at room temperature. Characteristic features of a piezoelectric sensor, used to measure the load at low temperature, are presented in detail.
