Advantages of Mettler Toledo's SLB215 and SLB415 series cantilever beam load cells

1、 Weighing sensors with cost-effective weighing characteristics

　　Mettler ToledoSLB215 and SLB415 seriesLoad CellIt provides cost-effective weighing with excellent accuracy and meets general industrial standards. The electronic components of SLB215 and SLB415 nickel plated steel weighing sensors are designed with airtight seals, which have similar performance and reliability compared to other more expensive stainless steel similar products.

SLB215 and SLB415Cantilever beam type weighing sensorThe weighing range is 110 kilograms to 4.4 tons. These weighing sensors can provide a cost-effective solution for integrated weighing in logistics, instrumentation, and general mechanical manufacturing, to avoid the very high initial cost caused by the use of stainless steel sensors. All models have been fully certified to OIML, NTEP, ATEX, and FM standards.

2、 Airtight seal

The performance of strain gauge weighing sensors is significantly affected by their moisture-proof sealing properties, as strain gauges are composed of organic materials that can absorb and flow water. This brings about a pumping effect, which, if not well sealed, can affect the performance of the weighing sensor.

The SLB215 and SLB415 load cells are made of nickel plated steel and sealed airtight with laser welding. Laser welding seals are usually only used on high-end all stainless steel models of sensors. High quality sealing technology protects sensitive weighing sensor components from moisture and dust, achieving better stability and measurement performance.
　

3、 Blind and threaded hole versions

The SLB415 load cell comes with a blind hole for placing the joystick. This can achieve a better form of connection to ensure that the device can still provide better accuracy after temperature changes and structural deformation. This is typically used for devices with more than one load cell. Mettler Toledo offers a series of weighing attachments based on the rocker form.

SLB215 comes with a threaded hole for applying load to secure the two ends of the load cell to the machine or instrument. Its advantage is that the overall structure is sturdy and will not fall off when applying loads, but its effect will be affected during thermal expansion and structural deformation. It also has an economical installation method, and only one weighing sensor can be used as a hanging scale. Mettler Toledo offers a range of accessories and other installation equipment that use threaded horizontal adjustment feet.
