CT.1000-3P1 Shear-beam load cell — stainless steel, IP67 (KERN)

The CT.1000-3P1 is a stainless-steel shear-beam load cell designed for platform, hopper and pit scales in industrial weighing applications.

• Stainless-steel shear-beam construction
• IP67 protection for harsh environments
• 3 mV/V nominal output for precise signals
• Suitable for platform, hopper and pit scales

Reliable performance in harsh conditions

The compact design combines stainless steel robustness with a sealed enclosure rated IP67, providing reliable protection against dust and temporary immersion. This construction minimises corrosion risk and mechanical wear, which in turn reduces maintenance intervals and supports continuous operation on production floors. The load cell’s compact mass (approx. 0.94 kg) and solid mounting characteristics contribute to consistent load transfer and long-term mechanical stability.

Precision and signal quality explained

With a 3 mV/V nominal output and OIML class C3 rating, the sensor delivers a reproducible analogue signal suitable for industrial indicators and PLC interfaces. The nominal output denotes the expected voltage change per excitation volt under full load, which helps in selecting suitable amplifiers or A/D converters. The device operates across a wide temperature span of -35°C to 65°C, ensuring stable measurement performance in variable climates and temperature-controlled processes. The standard 4-lead connection supports straightforward electrical integration; an EX version with a 6-lead connection and higher accuracy classes (C4/C5) is available on request.

Integration and compatibility for weighing systems

Equipped with a 4 m cable, the load cell simplifies installation in common layouts and minimises the need for field extensions. Compliance with EN 60529 and certification marks CE and RoHS confirm conformity with relevant safety and environmental standards, easing acceptance in regulated sectors. The shear-beam design is optimised for platform, hopper and pit scales, enabling straightforward replacement or retrofitting into existing systems and reducing engineering effort during scale assembly or modernisation.

Built for industrial workflows and diverse sectors

Nickel-plated stainless steel construction and shear-beam geometry ensure reliable performance across industries such as manufacturing, chemical processing, food and pharmaceuticals, building materials and logistics. The combination of mechanical resilience and a clear electrical output supports efficient process control and inventory management, helping to avoid production stoppages and to maintain traceable weighing results. The load cell’s origin and manufacturer details are recorded for procurement traceability and quality assurance.
