• Factory Mutual System Approved for Classes I, II, III;
Divisions 1 and 2; Groups A through G. DESCRIPTION
Also, non-incendive ratings (No barriers!). Model 60001 is a tension-compression load cell with a
• Optional humidity-resistant coating and shielded cables, which
❍❍ Stainless steel version is Model 60050 enable use in harsh environments while maintaining
operating specifications. Additional sense wires
APPLICATIONS compensate for changes in lead resistance due to
temperature change and/or cable extension.
• Tank, bin and hopper weighing
Ideally suited for lever conversions, hanging scales,
• Level and inventory monitoring
force measurement and a wide range of other industrial
• Truck scale conversions applications. Nickel-plated for outstanding corrosion
• Tension and compression measurements resistance.
