AM Single-point load cell for platforms 400x400 mm

High-accuracy aluminum load cell with IP65 protection, for industrial platform scales from 60 to 300 kg.


Key features

  • Capacity range: 60 to 300 kg
  • High accuracy: up to C5 (±0.014%)
  • Material: Aluminum alloy
  • IP65 protection rating
  • Compact form for 400x400 mm platforms
  • Certified: OIML R60, NTEP, ATEX, IECEx (on request)

Performance highlights

The AM is a single-point load cell designed for weighing platforms with dimensions of 400x400 mm. With accuracy classes up to OIML C5 (±0.014%), it provides reliable measurements for applications that require precision, robustness, and certification compliance.

Usage conditions

Built from aluminum alloy and rated IP65, the AM load cell is resistant to dust and low-pressure water jets. It supports applications in industrial, commercial, and legal-for-trade weighing systems. Certifications like ATEX and IECEx make it adaptable to hazardous zones (on request).

Possible applications

  • Industrial and legal-for-trade platform scales
  • Packaging and dosing machines
  • Logistics and retail checkweighers
  • Multi-support weighing systems
  • Compact OEM weighing modules
