VPG Force Sensors Model 5223 Double-Link Beam Load Cells

VPG Force Sensors Model 5223 Double-Link Beam Load Cells are hermetically sealed, end-loaded, center-supported double-ended shear beam load cells suitable for a wide range of truck and rail scales. VPG Force Sensors Model 5223 Double-Link Beam Load Cells are designed to use parallel link loading. Fully welded stainless steel seals ensure high environmental integrity and, with additional cable, can overcome occasional submersion without damage. These double-link beam load cells meet stringent weights and measures requirements throughout Europe.
