Description
The Gedge Systems GK2102 shear beam load cell has been designed from the ground up to offer class leading long term performance in a vast rang of of industrial situations.
It is part of a very large range of high quality load cells brought to Australia & New Zealand by Gedge systems.
The GK2102 shear beam is ruggedly built of the finest tool steel and protected by an electroless nickel plated finish. It has generously sized attachment threads and through holes to allow the use of strong fixing bolts and ruggedly built attachments and mounts.
The GK2102’s welded seal construction ensures an IP68 environmental protection rating, providing a secure enclosure that protects its internal components for long-term reliability.
PRODUCT PROPERTIES:
- Features commonly used mountings and a 2.2mV/V output, making it an ideal choice for replacing existing load cells in both design and field applications
- Superior laser welded sealed IP68 construction – most similar load cells only feature bonded sealed IP67 or less
- Fine quality tool steel and electroless nickel
- Matched outputs to 0.10% make corner adjustments un-necessary in most applications
- Load cells tested to guarantee load & thermal specifications met or exceeded
- Integral mounting step reduces need for spacer plate & improves mounting
- High accuracy 0.03% combined error
- Huge range of 125kg to 20,000kg
- Mounting dimensions allow easy replacement of existing load cells
- Superior load point connections in 2.5t/5t & 10t capacities with M24x3P & M30x3.5P threads with IDs to suit “drop in” or “ thread in” fittings
Applications:
- Concrete industry weighing & batching
- Industrial floor scales
- Batch weighing
- Hopper filling and level control
- Food and chemical industry
- All industrial weighing
