The Rice Lake RL72020-40K 40,000 lb Alloy Steel Double-Ended Beam Load Cell is a heavy-duty weighing sensor designed for industrial applications that demand high capacity, durability, and long-term accuracy. Manufactured by Rice Lake, this load cell is commonly used in truck scales, tank and hopper systems, and industrial process weighing environments.
Constructed from nickel-plated alloy steel, the RL72020-40K delivers excellent strength and corrosion resistance in harsh industrial conditions. Its double-ended beam design provides strong resistance to side loading and structural movement, helping maintain stable and accurate weight readings over time.
With a rated capacity of 40,000 lb (40000 lb / 40K) 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 installations.
The RL72020-40K 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 heavy-duty industrial weighing systems requiring dependable performance and accuracy.
