The KMC230 series of force transducers are easy to install, IP66 rated load cells (called pancakes or compression discs) for forces up to 500 kN. The force is applied via the M40 thread. The measuring body is made of steel and protected against corrosion (nickel plated). Despite the high forces, the load cell has a low overall height of 60 mm. The load cell is supplied calibrated with a test report and has a 6-metre connection cable. The sensor is commonly used in presses, testing machines, truck scales and large container and hopper scales.
