Capacity Expanded for Load Cell

July 19, 2017
PENKO Engineering has expanded the carrying capacity for its 260 series load cell.

The 260 series is now expanded with carrying capacities up to 200 kg. In addition, the design has been modified to improve the protection class, from IP66 to IP68. This was achieved by means of a smart pressure equalization of the housing. Furthermore, the enclosure is out of stainless steel. Integrated is a central overload protection, both in tension and compression. All of these features make type 260 suitable for all kinds of industrial applications.

 

Single point load cells possess the particular characteristic to be insensitive for a moment, which allows measurement of eccentric positioned loads. This way, weighing arrangements with surface sizes up to 600 x 600 mm can be realized with one sensor only. Additionally, the hydraulically damped sensors add insensitivity to shocks and vibrations. Due to the frictionless damping, these load cells quickly offer a stable weighing signal and allows utilization for fast processes such as sorting and filling by weight.
