CT.5000-3P1 Shear Beam Load Cell by KERN — 5,000 kg, IP67

The CT.5000-3P1 is a shear beam load cell designed for heavy-duty industrial weighing and force measurement in harsh production environments.

• Stainless shear rod, nickel-plated
• IP67 protection for wet and dusty environments
• 5,000 kg nominal load capacity
• 6 m cable, 4-wire connection

Precision that supports process control and traceability

The shear beam design delivers a stable, linear output suitable for industrial weighing systems. With a nominal output of 3 mV/V and OIML class C3 accuracy, the sensor provides quantifiable measurement performance that can be integrated into control loops and data logging systems. The mechanical layout — a stainless steel shear rod with nickel plating — reduces sensitivity to side loads and mechanical disturbance, which translates into fewer recalibrations and more consistent batch-to-batch process data.

Durable construction for continuous operation in demanding settings

Rated IP67 in accordance with EN 60529, the unit withstands dust ingress and temporary immersion, making it suitable for environments with washdowns or airborne particulates. The operating temperature range from −35 °C to 65 °C covers cold storage and heated production areas alike. Corrosion resistance from the stainless-steel construction and the supplied 6 m cable minimise service interventions and protect the measurement chain against environmental degradation, supporting long service intervals and dependable uptime.

Integration options that reduce installation time

Equipped with a standard 4‑wire connection, the load cell is straightforward to wire into junction boxes, summing modules or digital indicators. Variants such as an EX version, a 6‑wire connection or higher accuracy classes (C4/C5) are available on request for specialised installations. Compliance with CE and RoHS standards and suitability for platform, hopper and pit scales simplify conformity checks and accelerate acceptance in regulated industries such as food, pharmaceutical and chemical production.
