Thames side T85-T Shear Beam
High accuracy stainless steel shear beam load cell for industrial weighing. Fully welded, hermetically sealed, and suited for legal-for-trade and hazardous area applications.

Overview
Built for the world's
harshest environments
The T85 stainless steel shear beam is a high accuracy load cell that is widely used in industrial weighing applications worldwide. It has OIML approval (which is ideal in legal-for-trade applications) and it can withstand harsh manufacturing environments due to its fully welded and hermetically sealed design (IP68/IP69K).
It is suitable for a wide range of applications, thanks to its OIML approval to 3000 divisions (Class C3) and ATEX approval for use in hazardous areas where an explosion risk exists.
For dust zones 20, 21 and 22 it has ATEX certification that does not require the use of safety barriers.
Capacities range from 300kg to 10,000kg (with a new capacity at 2,500kg).
For use in platform scales, the T85 load cell has optimised pre-corner adjustment, calibrated in mV/V/Ohm by output current matching at ± 0.05%. This reduces corner correction setup time to a minimum.
The most common end use industries are Food Processing, Pharmaceutical, Chemical and Bulk Handling.
