Double-ended shear beam load cells - Maximum stability

When it comes to weighing large tanks, massive silos, or heavy industrial machinery, double shear beam load cells are the first choice. Thanks to their special design, which is fixed at both ends and takes the load in the center, they offer outstanding resistance to disruptive side and lateral forces, thereby providing maximum stability.

Double shear beam load cells: Maximum stability and precision for heavy loads

Our double shear beam load cells consistently deliver highly precise and reproducible measurement results, even with constant vibrations, thermal expansion of the system, or uneven load distribution. They are the reliable backbone for complex and heavy-duty industrial weighing systems.

Your benefits with our double shear beam load cells:

• Excellent side force compensation: Due to their design, they are extremely resistant to lateral forces and parasitic loads

• High load capacities: LDLA with rated loads from 9 t to 27 t, LDLB with 25 t – for heavy tank, silo and vehicle scales

• Maximum robustness: Made of nickel-plated AISI 4340 steel, paired with protection rating IP68 for use in harsh, damp, or dusty environments

• Legal-for-trade precision: Accuracy class C3 to OIML R60 for legal-for-trade applications

• Ready for extremes: Optionally available with approvals for safe operation in hazardous areas (ATEX / IECEx)

• Easy installation: In combination with our customized mounting modules (installation kits), they can be integrated into your construction safely and protected against tipping and lifting

Typical areas of application

These robust sensors are the ideal solution for vessel and silo weighing, large platform scales, vehicle scales, mixer and dosing systems, as well as for monitoring steel structures.
