Stainless S-Type Tension/Compression Load Cell - PT4050

The PT4050 is a general purpose precision load cell for tension or compression applications with a stainless steel body for superior corrosion resistance and is offered in a wide range of capacities.

Nine metric capacities - 50kg to 10t (Metric thread)

Two imperial capacities - 15000lb and 20000lb (UNF thread)

The various capacities feature a 3mV/V output from a rugged stainless steel body intended to measure axial loads not only in tension (with positive signal output) but also compression (with negative signal output). Sealed to IP67 and accepting standard fittings, the PT4050 comes with a range of mounting accessories.

S-type load cells, also referred to as z-type, s-beam and z-type load cells are versatile and used in a wide variety of applications. Popular installations include mechanical scale conversions, materials testing, bi-directional, level and inventory monitoring as well as rope and chain strength testing, asphalt plants, bagging machines, dynomometers and hanging tanks, hoppers and silos.
