Pancake Load Cell for Silo/Tank Weighing, 50 ton/ 200 ton to 500 ton

After purchasing one ATO load cell sensor, you can buy a special digital panel meter to obtain readings directly, or buy a transmitter to output standard signal to PLC, DCS and other systems. Customized output signal is 0-5V, 0-10V, or 4-20mA.

Note: The load cell cannot be connected to both the transmitter and the controller at the same time — only one can be selected.

Buying this high-capacity pancake load cell for silo and tank weighing results in precision weighing. With a zero output of ±1% F·S and a hysteresis error of 0.05% F·S. Available in 50 ton, 80 ton, 100 ton, 200 ton, 300 ton, and 500 ton capacities, it supports a wide range of display controllers and load cell transmitters to ensure you get the accurate weighing data.

Tips: Pancake load cell basics

The pancake load cell is a common force transducer widely used in the fields of weighing and force measurement. Named for its flat, circular structure that resembles a pancake, the pancake load cell is highly accurate, stable, and resistant to bias loads, and is capable of effectively measuring longitudinal pressure or weight. The principle of operation is usually to sense the small changes in the force applied to the structure by strain gauges, thus outputting an electrical signal proportional to the applied force.

Pancake load cell sensors are commonly used in scenarios where high precision force measurement is required due to their unique design and high performance. The main application areas include industrial weighing, material testing, liquid tank weighing, bridge load testing, and laboratory precision measuring equipment.
