The precise Z6FD1 100kg bending beam load cell, developed by HBM in 1972, has been continuously optimized for decades. Z6FD1 100kg is based on the strain gauge technology. It is available in nine different versions with maximum capacities that range 100kg. The load cell with the characteristic bellows has become a worldwide standard, with millions of load cells having been sold. It is employed in platform and conveyor scales for dosing and level measurement as well as in weighing modules that, for instance, are used for tank weighing applications. The metal bellows protects the load cell against the ingress of moisture. The Z6FD1 100kg load cell has been optimized for connection in parallel. An IECEx-ATEX-compliant explosion-proof version is also available.
