5 ton load cell
A 5 ton load cell is a precision measurement device designed to convert mechanical force into electrical signals, capable of accurately measuring weights up to 5 metric tons. This sophisticated instrument employs strain gauge technology to detect and measure force through microscopic deformations in its metal structure. The device features advanced temperature compensation, ensuring reliable measurements across various environmental conditions. Constructed from high-grade alloy steel with specialized heat treatment, these load cells offer exceptional durability and long-term stability. They typically provide an output sensitivity of 2mV/V and maintain accuracy within 0.03% of the rated capacity. The 5 ton load cell includes built-in overload protection mechanisms and sealed housing designs that achieve IP66 or IP67 ratings for protection against dust and water. These devices are compatible with various indicators and data acquisition systems through standardized output signals. Their versatility makes them ideal for industrial weighing applications, including platform scales, hopper systems, tank weighing, and material testing equipment. The load cell's design incorporates multiple mounting options and standardized connections, facilitating easy installation and maintenance in diverse industrial environments.
