Zemic 40 Ton Load Cell

BD Scale Zemic 40 Ton Series represents the heavy-duty standard for high-capacity vehicle weighing in Bangladesh. Engineered specifically for 80-ton to 150-ton weighbridges and truck scales, these load cells are designed to withstand the extreme vertical loads and lateral forces common in ports, steel mills, and cement factories.

Available in both Analog (HM9B) and Digital (HM14H1) versions, these dual-shear beam load cells feature a unique “rocker” design that allows for thermal expansion and contraction of the weighbridge structure without losing accuracy. Constructed from high-strength nickel-plated alloy steel, each cell is OIML R60 C3 certified, ensuring international legal-for-trade precision. To combat the harsh Bangladeshi climate, the sensors are hermetically sealed to IP68 standards, making them completely submersible and resistant to the corrosive effects of mud, salt air, and heavy monsoon rains.

Technical Specifications

Key Performance Highlights

• Dual-Shear Beam Design: Provides superior resistance to side loads and eccentric loading, ensuring the weight is accurate regardless of the truck’s position on the platform.

• Hermetic Sealing: The strain gauge area is protected by a laser-welded stainless steel cap or high-grade potting, preventing moisture ingress that causes weight “drift.”

• Self-Centering Rocker: The mounting hardware (mount kits) allows the load cell to automatically return to its center point after a vehicle exits, maintaining long-term calibration stability.

• Anti-Lightning Protection: Built-in surge arrestors protect the internal bridge circuitry from electrical surges—essential for outdoor weighbridge stations in Bangladesh.

• Digital Intelligence: (For HM14H1) Allows for individual cell addressing, making corner calibration and fault diagnosis fast and simple through the indicator.

Ideal Applications

• 80T – 150T Truck Scales: The primary component for 6-cell, 8-cell, or 10-cell weighbridge configurations.

• Heavy-Duty Silo Weighing: Measuring the weight of massive grain elevators or cement silos.

• Railway Track Scales: Capable of handling the extreme impact and weight of locomotive wagons.

• Industrial Hoppers: High-capacity batching systems for steel and construction raw materials.
