Double-ended shear beam load cell DSL – From 5 to 100 t

Product catalog summary

Application
The DSL load cell is designed for weighing silos, hoppers, and vessels with medium to high capacity. It is particularly suitable for vessels that are agitated or exposed to significant thermal forces.

Description
The DSL load cell is constructed from stainless steel and is hermetically sealed to IP 68 standards. It features a double-ended shear beam design and a 'Silo Load Mount' that minimizes the impact of lateral forces. The mount allows for thermal expansion and includes an anti-lifting device. It also has a locking mechanism for installation without the load cell, reducing the risk of damage.

Available Models
The load cells are available in various capacities ranging from 5 to 100 tons, with corresponding minimum divisions and maximum load limits.

Cabling
The load cell uses a PVC 6-core screened cable with a 6 mm diameter and a length of 12 meters.

Options
Options include an ATEX version for hazardous areas, a dummy load cell for outdoor installations, and alignment shims for setups with four or more load points.

Double-ended shear beam load cell DSL – From 5 to 100 t-1

DSL Double-ended shear beam load cell 12/2008 Weighing of silos, hoppers and vessels of medium and high capacity. Especially suitable for weighing vessels that are agitated or subject to major thermal forces. Typical Application Description The DSL load cell is manufactured in stainless steel and is hermetically sealed to IP 68. The characteristics of the double-ended shear beam load cell, together with it’s mounting arrangement “Silo Load Mount“, ensure it is not influenced by the lateral forces associated with vessels with agitators. The load mount allows thermal expansion and includes an antilifting device. The mount also features a locking device that enables it to be installed without the load cell fitted eliminating the risk of mechanical or electrical damage to the load cell during vessel installation. Correct positioning of load mounts to avoid thermal forces. Minimum Maximum Safe load division load limit 0.5 kg 7.5 t 10 t 1 kg 15 t 20 t 2 kg 30 t 40 t 3 kg 45 t 60 t 5 kg 75 t 100 t 7.5 kg 112.5 t 150 t 10 kg 150 t 200 t Available Models Screen Screen ATEX version for use in hazardous areas. Dummy load cell (only required for outdoor installation). Set of alignment shims (if the number of load points is ≥ 4).
