Key Features & Operational Benefits

• True Single-Point Design: Ensures highly accurate weight measurement regardless of where the load is placed on the platform, effectively minimizing errors from eccentric or off-center loading.

• All-Welded Stainless Steel Construction: Provides exceptional resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for use in food processing, chemical, marine, and outdoor applications.

• IP67 Environmental Protection: Fully dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion in water, guaranteeing reliable operation in wet, humid, or dusty industrial settings.

• High Precision and Signal Stability: A consistent 2 mV/V output and minimal temperature drift ensure repeatable and trustworthy measurements over time.

• Dual Force Capability: While primarily optimized for compression applications, it is also capable of handling tensile (pulling) forces for versatile system integration.

• Robust Safety Margin: Features a safe overload limit of 150% of rated capacity, protecting the sensor from accidental overloading and ensuring long-term structural integrity.

• Flexible Excitation Voltage: Operates efficiently with a recommended input of 5-12 V DC, offering compatibility with a wide range of instrumentation.
