The load cell is the most important component of a weighing system because all digital scales rely on them to function. Load cells contain a strain gauge that measures electrical currents and changes in resistance when weight is applied to it. This causes the load cell to bend slightly and changes the electrical resistance in the load cell, which a weight indicator processes to display a weight value.
The Rice Lake Alloy Steel, S-Beam Load Cell capacities range from 25 to 20,000 pounds.
