Load Cell 50 Ton for Industrial Weighing and Monitoring
When a project calls for accurate weight measurement in tough conditions, the sensor needs to hold up. A 50 ton load cell from Kingmach is built for those demands. We see it often in silo weighing, material testing, and geotechnical applications where data reliability isn’t negotiable. Our background in geotechnical instruments means we understand the long-term stability and ruggedness these jobs require. Rather than a generic off-the-shelf part, you’re getting a product backed by engineering teams that deal with strain, temperature shifts, and harsh environments daily. And if the standard model doesn’t quite fit your setup, we can work with you on customizations—modified cable lengths, mounting threads, or specific output signals. It’s a practical approach that has served our global customer base across monitoring and weighing sites.
Technical Detail
The 50 ton load cell from Kingmach is a heavy-duty sensing element designed for compressive force measurement. Typical applications sit in weighbridges, tank and hopper scales, press force monitoring, and geotechnical pile testing. The sensing element itself often uses alloy steel construction with a nickel-plated finish for corrosion resistance, though exact materials can vary by project needs. Most versions offer an IP67 or higher sealing, which helps keep moisture and dust out during outdoor installations. Signal output is usually in the 2–3 mV/V range, compatible with standard weight indicators or our own readout systems. Accuracy classes commonly hit C3 or C4, meaning the cell is suitable for both static weighing and dynamic force measurement where OIML compliance is required. Beyond the hardware, Kingmach brings value through its global distribution and after-sales support. Stock is held in regional warehouses, and technical teams are available to assist with integration, calibration, or troubleshooting. Because we manufacture a broad array of geotechnical instruments—from strain gauges to inclinometers—we can often supply complementary monitoring gear, saving you from dealing with multiple vendors. Customization requests, such as specifying cable connectors, wiring diagrams, or even non-standard capacities close to 50 tons, are handled case-by-case by our engineering group. The result is a load cell that matches the specific rigors of your application, backed by a team that understands measurement in the field, not just on paper.

It depends on the model, but many of our 50 ton cells meet OIML C3 or C4 accuracy classes. That typically translates to a combined error of less than ±0.02% of full scale, which is adequate for most industrial weighing and geotechnical monitoring. For higher precision needs, we can discuss tighter tolerances.
Yes, most units are sealed to at least IP67, meaning they withstand rain, dust, and temporary submersion. For permanent outdoor installations like silo weighing, we often recommend additional junction boxes with surge protection and proper cable routing to prevent condensation.
If you’re only measuring downward force—like in a hopper or tank support—a compression-only cell is simpler and often more cost-effective. If you need to measure both pushing and pulling forces, such as in material testing machines or tie-back anchors, a universal tension/compression model is necessary. Our team can help you specify based on your mounting setup.
We regularly modify cable lengths, connectors, and mounting threads. For larger orders, we can also adjust the dimensions, output sensitivity, or add ATEX/IECEx certification for hazardous areas. Contact our sales engineers with your requirements, and we’ll provide a feasibility assessment.
Yes, each cell comes with a factory calibration certificate traceable to national standards. If your application requires ISO 17025 accredited calibration, we can arrange that as well. Periodic recalibration service is available through our support network.
