A shear beam load cell is the traditional load cell used for medium weighing applications. They are normally used in a group of 3 or 4 under silos, tanks, platforms, etc. Loads can also be suspended from below the load cell if mounted on framework. As a rule of thumb, for a four-load cell system, divide your maximum load by 2. This will give you the required load cell capacity.
The beam type load cell family, sometimes known as a bending load cell, tend to be the most commonly used due to the variety of available options. Applications include filling machinery, industrial floor scales, tank and silo weighing, plus diverse applications in on-board vehicle weighing, medical equipment and process control, where a load cell shear beam installation is required.
Shear Beam load cells are designed in high accuracy, and great for process weighing, industrial scale and general measurement applications, such as industrial floor scales, barrel scales, and low to medium capacity vessel weighing. These Single Ended Shear Beam load cells are easily mounted on top with threaded hole and two through holes.
