RS PRO introduces the RS PRO Bending Beam Load Cell. This load cell is made from stainless steel with a fully welded construction to ensure durability and long life for your product. This bending beam load cells low profile, high accuracy, high precision and sealing makes this bending type load cell perfect for a wide range of applications including weighing and packing machines and suitable for harsh industrial environments.

Load cells are transducers that transform a force, for example, tension, compression or torque into an electrical signal, this is then measured and standardised. Load cells come in a variety of types from S-type, shear beam, strain gauge, beam and compression load cells. Beam type load cells and force sensors are specially designed for low profile platform scales and a variety of other applications where hermetically sealed cells are needed and used in a variety of industries for example

• Hopper and silo scale


• Tank weighing


• Weighing and packing machines


• Conversion of mechanical scales


• Marine scales


• Hybrid scales


• Checking the filling level of tanks

During the measuring, weight acts on the load cells metal spring element and causes elastic deformation. This strain, positive or negative, is then converted into an electrical signal by a strain gauge that is installed on the spring element.

RS PRO is our own brand range and brings you a wide range of high-quality, great value products offering you more choice. Trusted by engineers all over the world, every part of every RS PRO product has been rigorously tested against demanding industry standards
