AR Single-point load cell for platforms 800x800 mm

Robust IP65 aluminum load cell for high-capacity weighing platforms from 500 to 1000 kg.


Key features

  • Load capacities: 500 kg and 1000 kg
  • OIML R60 compliant
  • Aluminum alloy construction
  • IP65 protection class
  • Combined error ≤ ±0.05%
  • Optional ATEX, IECEx, ISO 376 & ASTM E74 certifications

Performance overview AR Single-point load cell

The AR single-point load cell is built to handle larger platform sizes up to 800x800 mm, with a capacity range from 500 to 1000 kg. Designed in aluminum alloy and manufactured to OIML R60 standards, it delivers reliable weighing performance with a combined error ≤ ±0.05%.

Use cases and environments

Thanks to its IP65 protection, the AR is ideal for dry industrial environments. It is available with advanced certification options including ATEX (zones 0, 1, 2, 21, 22) and IECEx, making it suitable for hazardous areas. It can also be supplied with a LAT Accredia calibration certificate (ISO 376 / ASTM E74) for metrology-grade precision (from 1000 kg and up).

Typical applications

  • Heavy-duty weighing platforms (800x800 mm)
  • Material handling and logistics scales
  • Bulk weighing systems
  • Industrial automation
  • OEM and integration into robust weighing modules

Why choose the AR model?

With a compact form factor and high mechanical strength, the AR load cell is well-suited for applications requiring both accuracy and durability. The 2 mV/V output allows easy integration with standard weighing electronics, and installation is straightforward with standard M8 mounting bolts.
