Rice Lake RL20000FLS Stainless Steel, S-Beam Load Cell

Key Highlights Designed to meet NTEP certification requirements for legal-for-trade applications Constructed entirely of stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance Environmentally sealed to IP67 rating for protection in harsh, dry environments Available in a 5,000 lb capacity for industrial suspended weighing needs Provides 1.5 mV/V full scale output with 0.02% combined error The Rice Lake RL20000FLS S-beam load cell is engineered for suspended applications such as hanging scales, tank weighing, and hopper systems, as well as for converting existing mechanical scales to electronic operation. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion in dry environments where moisture or chemicals might otherwise degrade standard load cells, making it suitable for food processing, chemical handling, and industrial manufacturing settings. With an IP67 environmental seal, this load cell is protected against dust and temporary immersion, ensuring reliable performance even when exposed to washdowns or ambient moisture. The unit operates within a temperature range of 0 °F to 150 °F and maintains compensated accuracy from 14 °F to 104 °F. Safe overload capacity reaches 150% of full scale, providing a margin of safety in unpredictable industrial conditions. The 30-inch integral cable includes a five-wire color code for straightforward integration with standard instrumentation, with red, black, green, white, and yellow shield conductors.
