Digital Cup Ball Load Cells 70610-DiGI

70610 DIGI Double Ended Shear Beam Load Cell is a CE-certified, IP68-protected load cell designed for demanding industrial weighing applications. It is suitable for truck weighbridges, tanks, hoppers and tensile testing. The load cell is made from hardened, electroless nickel-plated tool steel and features a self-restoring, self-centering cup-and-ball mounting mechanism.

The DIGI version has fully embedded electronics with RS485 communication, making it suitable for long-distance digital signal transmission with reduced signal-loss concerns.
