Performance highlights CL Pancake load cell

The CL load cell is designed for bidirectional force measurement — both compression and tension — with high precision and robustness. It provides a stable signal output of 2 mV/V ±0.3%, ensuring consistent performance in critical industrial applications.

Usage conditions

The load cell operates reliably in harsh environments, with a protection rating of IP68 (up to 60,000 kg) and IP67 (100,000 to 200,000 kg). It supports a wide nominal load range from 500 kg to 200,000 kg and withstands safe overloads up to 150%, with an ultimate overload of 300%.

Possible applications

• Industrial weighbridges and silos
• Force monitoring in heavy machinery
• Structural testing and destructive test rigs
• High-capacity process control systems
• OEM load measurement integration

Advantages of choosing this load cell

The CL series combines durability, precision, and scalability. Its 17-4 PH stainless steel construction ensures long-lasting performance, even in corrosive or explosive environments. It is available with redundant strain gauges for safety-critical systems, and optional ATEX and IECEx certifications for hazardous zones.

Other important features

• Compensated temperature range: -20 °C to +70 °C
• Operating temperature range: -30 °C to +90 °C
• Insulation resistance: >5000 MΩ
• Creep: 0.3% over 30 minutes
• Deflection at nominal load: 0.3 mm
• Cable: 5 m, 6 x 0.14 mm²
