What is the difference between tension-only and compression-only load cells?

Tension-only sensors are designed for pulling loads; compression-only sensors for pushing loads. Some universal sensors handle both. Choosing the right type ensures reliable data and avoids degradation of the sensor due to overload or misuse.
