The Rice Lake RL72020-20K 20,000 lb Alloy Steel Double-Ended Beam Load Cell is a heavy-duty weighing sensor designed for industrial applications where strength, accuracy, and long-term reliability are critical. Manufactured by Rice Lake, this load cell is widely used in truck scales, tank and hopper systems, and industrial process weighing installations.
 
Constructed from nickel-plated alloy steel, the RL72020-20K provides exceptional durability and corrosion resistance in harsh environments. Its double-ended beam design delivers excellent resistance to side loading and structural movement, helping maintain stable and accurate weight measurements over time.
 
With a rated capacity of 20,000 lb (20000 lb / 20K) and a 3.0 mV/V output, this load cell produces a strong, reliable signal compatible with most industrial weight indicators. The unit is environmentally sealed to IP67, protecting internal components from dust and moisture in outdoor or washdown applications.
 
The RL72020-20K is NTEP approved, making it suitable for legal-for-trade weighing applications when properly installed. A 30 ft integral cable is included to simplify installation and reduce wiring complexity.
 
This load cell is an excellent solution for medium- to heavy-duty weighing systems requiring dependable performance in demanding industrial conditions.
