Precise, trade-capable weighing for compact platforms
This compact weighing sensor delivers consistent measurement performance suited to pricing and laboratory scales. The design yields a stable 2 mV/V nominal output and is optimised for an 8 kg maximum capacity, which supports accurate readings in routine production and quality-control processes. Classification to OIML R60 C3 (on request) provides a verifiable basis for trade use, while the calibrated output simplifies conversion to digital electronics, reducing the need for extensive signal conditioning and accelerating commissioning.
Durable construction for production and food environments
The load element is encased in anodised aluminium, offering a corrosion-resistant surface that keeps mechanical tolerances stable under daily use. With an IP65 ingress rating and a wide operating temperature range from −35 °C to 65 °C, the unit resists dust and splash water and copes with fluctuating workshop and packaging-line climates. The low mass and compact footprint make the weighing element an unobtrusive fit in confined installations without compromising mechanical robustness.
Simple electrical and mechanical integration
Connection is provided via a 4-wire connection, enabling straightforward wiring to amplifiers, controllers or indicator units commonly used in industrial weighing systems. The sensor supports platform assemblies up to 250 × 350 mm, matching the footprint of many bench and table scales. Its single-point mounting principle simplifies mechanical installation and minimises levelling effort, which shortens setup time and reduces production downtime when replacing or upgrading weighing modules.
Compliance, versatility and application scope
Certified CE and RoHS conformity and adherence to EN 60529 assure regulatory compliance and safe usage in diverse sectors. The load cell is suitable for industrial manufacturing, packaging lines, food and pharmaceutical processes, machine building and research and development—where reproducible weighing and supply-chain traceability are essential. The combination of compact design and proven metrology standards supports both retrofit and original-equipment applications.
