Double Bending Beam Load Cell Model DF: Key Features and Applications

The DF series load cells, made from steel, are designed specifically for use in steel plants, supporting nominal loads ranging from 10 to 100 tons. With a robust construction and IP66 protection, these load cells do not require any mounting accessories. Their unique design allows them to handle vertical loads up to 300% and breaking loads up to 500% of the nominal load. Typical applications include tundish and ladle turret weighing, where high mechanical resistance is crucial.
