Bending and shear beam load cell CB.30-3Q1 (stainless steel, 30 kg) by KERN

CB.30-3Q1 is a stainless‑steel bending and shear beam load cell designed for industrial weighing and force measurement in harsh production environments

• Stainless steel construction
• IP68/IP69K protection for washdowns
• Rated capacity 30 kg
• Nominal output 2 mV/V, 4‑wire connection

Robust design for wet and hygienic environments

The load cell is built from stainless steel, offering intrinsic corrosion resistance and mechanical stability that suits food, pharmaceutical and chemical environments. The IP68/IP69K rating confirms dust-tight sealing and resistance to high‑pressure, high‑temperature washdowns, reducing the need for special enclosures and simplifying hygiene procedures. This robust construction translates into fewer service interventions and longer service intervals, which supports continuous production and lowers total cost of ownership.

Precise electrical output for reliable measurement chains

With a nominal output of 2 mV/V, the sensor provides a clear analogue signal that integrates easily with common instrumentation and weighing electronics. The 4‑wire connection ensures stable excitation and signal returns for accurate readings across a range of temperatures and cable lengths. The electrical specification supports straightforward calibration and compatibility with existing amplifiers or transmitters, enabling reproducible mass values and confidence in measurement results across shifts and batches.

Adaptable for multiple weighing applications

Engineered as a bending and shear beam load cell, this unit is suitable for platform scales, hopper and silo weighing, floor scales and other industrial weighing fixtures. The compact footprint and lightweight construction facilitate retrofitting into existing systems or integration into new installations without major structural changes. Compliance with recognised protection and construction standards supports deployment in logistics, construction materials handling, and production lines where regular cleaning or aggressive environments are present.

Practical benefits for maintenance and system reliability

Thanks to its stainless‑steel body and protection class, the sensor withstands harsh cleaning regimes and corrosive atmospheres while maintaining mechanical integrity. The operating temperature range of -30 °C to 70 °C covers cold‑store and typical production environments, limiting errors from temperature drift in routine operations. Low mass aids handling during installation, and the product’s conformity with EN 60529 provides a transparent basis for specifying environmental resistance in tender documents and technical dossiers.
