The low profile HT(2) load cells that work on the shear beam principle are available for use in 350 or 700 ohm. It has a special alloy steel flexure. Special materials cover the sensing element and isolate it from the industrial environment. Nickel-plated and stainless steel load cells are protected very well from elements like rain, dust, and water, allowing for a superlative performance. Designed for compression, HT(2) load cells are good for middle and high capacity applicaitons. They are used for weighing of silo-tank and weighing platform. They are able to withstand effects of off-axis loading that are caused by the wind. Mounting accessories are available for tank and silo related applications. HT(2) load cells also find use in testing machines.
