Tension load cell tackles heavy weights
Tension load cells are particularly suited to process applications where the product needing measurement is contained in large tanks or is being transported on conveyor belts.
The RCSBC3 tension load cell from HBM is a robust, hermetically encapsulated S-type load cell made from stainless steel that measures heavy loads from 500kg up to 5t The load cell is suitable for a wide range of hybrid, overhead track and conveyor scale applications

Six month payback is expected following the installation of HBM monitoring equipment for the press-fit routines in a new type of automated production line.
Tension load cells are particularly suited to process applications where the product needing measurement is contained in large tanks or is being transported on conveyor belts.
In such cases, the most suitable measurement method is often to suspend the weighing tank or conveyor belt by tension load cells.
The RSCBC3 tension load cell satisfies the OIML test requirements for up to 3000d.
It is approved for use in class III legal-for-trade scales.
It can be used in Zone 1, 2 (gas) and 21, 22 (dust) potentially explosive atmospheres.
For optimum weighing accuracy, HBM provides rod end bearings enabling the RCSBC3 tension load cell to be installed vertically. Request a free brochure from HBM UK ...
