CR.5000-1Q1 stainless steel load cell — 5,000 kg capacity, IP68 (KERN)

The CR.5000-1Q1 is a stainless steel force transducer designed for industrial weight and compression measurements in vehicle scales, hopper scales and test rigs

• Stainless steel construction, corrosion-resistant
• IP68 protection for washdown and harsh environments
• 5,000 kg nominal capacity for heavy loads
• OIML C1 accuracy class, RoHS compliant

Built for harsh industrial environments

The housing is made from stainless steel, providing a corrosion-resistant surface suited to regular cleaning and aggressive environments. With an IP68 rating and an operating range of -50°C to 70°C, this load sensor withstands washdown procedures and outdoor exposure without compromising measurement stability. The robust design reduces downtime and maintenance intervals, supporting continuous use in demanding production and agricultural settings.

Traceable accuracy that supports trade and testing

Engineered to provide a consistent electrical output of 2 mV/V, the device delivers predictable signal levels for common signal conditioners and indicators. Certified to OIML C1, the unit meets recognised standards for trade and inspection work, enabling documented and repeatable results in test stands and weighing systems. Compliance with RoHS and EN 60529 further underlines conformity with safety and environmental requirements, simplifying regulatory acceptance.

Versatile integration across weighing and test applications

The compact force transducer is optimised for heavy-capacity applications where sensor reliability matters: vehicle scales, hopper weighing and industrial test rigs all benefit from the 5,000 kg nominal capacity and robust mounting options. Using a single high-capacity cell can reduce the number of sensors required, lowering system complexity while maintaining accuracy. The combination of durability and high load rating makes this device suitable for both static and quasi-static measurement tasks.

Practical handling and dependable performance for production workflows

With a mass of approximately 1.1 kg and a standard electrical output, the sensor is straightforward to install and calibrate with existing instrumentation. The stainless construction and IP68 protection lower long-term maintenance needs, while the consistent output facilitates fast commissioning and stable readings under varying temperatures. Supplied by KERN, the unit offers a compact, long-lasting solution to keep measurement processes efficient and traceable.
