CT 2000-3Q1 shear beam load cell by KERN — stainless steel, 2,000 kg

The CT 2000-3Q1 is a shear beam load cell designed for industrial weighing applications where accuracy and environmental resistance are required, suitable for platform, hopper and floor-recessed scales.

• Stainless steel shear bar construction
• 2,000 kg nominal capacity
• IP68 / IP69K protection rating
• OIML C3 accuracy class

Precise measurement where process control matters

The load cell employs a shear beam principle that converts applied force into a proportional electrical signal, delivering a nominal output of 2 mV/V and meeting OIML C3 accuracy requirements. This combination provides consistent, traceable readings that support automated batching and inventory control processes. The calibrated output simplifies amplifier or indicator configuration, helping to maintain process reliability and reduce recalibration frequency in production environments.

Durable design for harsh production environments

Manufactured in stainless steel, the transducer resists corrosion and is rated to IP68/IP69K under EN 60529, which ensures long-term operation even when exposed to dust, washdowns or high-pressure cleaning. The specified operating temperature range from -30°C to 70°C enables stable performance across typical industrial climates. These properties reduce downtime and extend service intervals for installations in food, chemical or building-materials facilities.

Easy integration into diverse weighing systems

Engineered for compatibility with multiple scale formats, the cell is suitable for platform scales, hopper scales and floor-recessed installations, with a 6‑wire connection and a 5 m cable for flexible mounting. The unit’s stainless shear bar and compact form facilitate retrofits as well as new builds. An EX-rated variant is available on request for hazardous-area applications, and CE and RoHS conformity support regulatory compliance in European production lines.
