What types of scales is the RL1140 best for?

The RL1140 excels in bench scales, small platform scales, retail hoppers, packaging stations, and light-duty industrial platforms needing capacities between 15 and 150 kg.

Is the RL1140 suitable for wet or corrosive environments?

Yes — with stainless steel construction the RL1140 is more resistant to moisture and mild corrosion. However, it is not fully sealed for heavy wash-down conditions; for frequent wash-downs consider a hermetically sealed or IP-rated load cell.

What is the cable length included?

Each RL1140 load cell includes a 10 ft cable to facilitate installation or replacement in most small- to mid-scale systems.

Can I use the RL1140 to replace an older single-point load cell?

Often yes — if the original cell has similar capacity and mounting footprint. Contact us with your system details if you need help verifying compatibility.

What capacity options are available?

15 kg, 30 kg, 50 kg, 75 kg, 100 kg and 150 kg versions are available to match a variety of scale and platform requirements.

The Rice Lake RL1140 stainless-steel single-point load cell offers a robust, corrosion-resistant weighing solution for bench scales, hopper platforms, packaging stations, and small- to medium-capacity platform systems. Available in capacities from 15 kg up to 150 kg with a 10 ft cable, the RL1140 combines reliability, precision, and versatility in one compact sensor.

Built for demanding industrial or commercial environments, the RL1140 ensures long-term stability and consistent performance — whether you’re upgrading a retail scale, building a packaging line scale, or replacing a worn load cell. With stainless steel construction and dependable output, it balances ruggedness and accuracy at a competitive price.
