force transducers are easy to install load cells (called pancakes or compression discs) with IP66 protection for forces up to 300 kN. The load cells are available in 3 versions depending on the load. The force is applied via 3 metric thread sizes (50 kN - M16, 100 kN and 200 kN - M32, 300 kN - M40). The load cell is made of steel and is protected against corrosion (nickel plated). Despite the high forces, the load cell has a low overall height. The sensor is supplied calibrated with a test report and has a 6-metre connection cable. The load cell is commonly used in presses, testing machines, truck scales and large container and hopper scales.
