WA

The WA Series is an extremely rugged, high performance load cell constructed of steel (WA1), and hermetically sealed stainless steel (WA4). The WA Series load cells are designed to accurately measure compression loads in capacities ranging from 0-1,000 lbs. to 0-200,000 lbs. The robust, rectangular Dual Shear Beam design readily tolerates angular, eccentric and side loading effects, with minimal sensitivity to these anomalies. This load cell is available as Harsh Environment Sealed (IP67-Limited Immersion), Hostile Environment Sealed (IP66-High Pressure Jets) or Hermetically Sealed (IP68-Continuous Immersion) by virtue of proprietary, multi-redundant barriers uniquely integrated to protect all internal components. The WA4 hermetically sealed version uses suitable conduit and the standard cable conduit adapter. The cable is a durable polyurethane-jacketed cable, with a tinned-copper braided shield for mechanical protection and to minimize the effects of RFI and EMI. The WA Series output sensitivities are held to a close tolerance to facilitate summing in multiple load cell applications. The attributes of the WA Series make it ideal for inventory monitoring, tank/bin/hopper and reactor weighing, bulk material handling, web tension and steel coil weighing applications, as well as for O.E.M. situations.
