Double Ended Beam Load Cell

The load cell itself is part of the system support structure.

Double ended beam load cell.

This is a non invasive method of weighing the load in crane elevator for overload monitoring purpose. Digital double ended shear beam. Double ended shear beam load cells are an excellent option for industrial applications such as floor scales and heavy duty weighing scales for trucks vessels and tanks. This type of load cell is a variation of the shear beam load cell normally rated for higher loads.

Coti global s double ended beams are very common in tank hopper applications as well as truck scales. 45 000 kg 100 000 lb. Double ended shear beams are designed to simplify the mounting and loading of the load cell. The applied load is introduced into the center of the load cell providing symmetry loading via a clamp often with lift off protection.

By either mounting on the ends and loading in the center or mounting in the center and loading on the ends the result is often a more efficient support structure. Completely encapsulated and filled with a potting compound to fill all internal voids and prevent any potential for moisture entering the load cell and causing premature failure. Our selection of shear beams come in alloy aluminum stainless and tool steel. They are supported on both ends and loaded in the middle measuring shear strain due to the applied load.

It is clamped on to the rope and is used to measure the slackness or tension of a rope on a crane elevator. This low profile double ended shear beam load cell model desb rim is specially designed for measuring the tension in the rope.

102th double ended beam load cell. In double shear beam load cells the force acts on the centre of the device. They are mechanically robust and allow for low profile installations. This makes double shear beam load cells less sensitive to uneven loading.
