100kg load cell

The most common is an analog millivolt signal, usually 2 mV/V or 3 mV/V, which goes straight into a weight indicator or a PLC analogue input. For easier setup or longer cable runs, we also supply versions with an integrated amplifier that output 0–10 V or 4–20 mA. Digital outputs like RS485 (Modbus RTU) are an option if you need to network multiple sensors or reduce noise pickup.

It depends on the type. S-beam load cells are designed for inline tension and compression, so a 100kg S-beam works well in hanging scale applications or force testing jigs. Single-point cells and beam cells are primarily made for compression but can sometimes handle limited tension if you fix them properly through threaded holes—contact our engineers with your mounting arrangement.

Most of our standard 100kg cells have IP65, which means they are dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets. That covers typical indoor industrial use, like a packing area with occasional washdown. If you need long-term outdoor use or direct hose-down cleaning, ask for IP67 or IP68 sealing; those models have additional potting and O-ring seals on the cable entry and covers.

Aluminum works fine in dry, corrosion-free environments—think bench scales inside a lab or a shipping station. It costs less and responds faster because it is lighter. Stainless steel holds up against moisture, mild chemicals, and temperature fluctuations, so it is the safer choice for food processing, marine, or outdoor weighing. Many engineers start with aluminum for prototyping and move to stainless for the field.

Every cell leaves our factory with a calibration sheet showing rated output, zero balance, linearity error, and input/output resistance. Even if you order a single sample for evaluation, you receive that data. It is how we make sure your first integration goes smoothly without guesswork.
