Compression Load Cell DLC (DLC-Ex)

Capacitive load cells with integrated lift-off protection (Patent Pending) for installations e.g. in areas with seismic activity, outdoor silos and high shear mixers. These robust digital compression load cells in EHEDG compliant design are produced in electropolished stainless steel and hermetically sealed to IP68. The load cells type DLC-Ex can be used in ATEX (Ex) and IECEx applications (Zone 1, 2, 21 and 22).

Type: DLC (Non-ATEX) DLC-Ex (ATEX) Capacity (Emax): 50, 100, 150, 250, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000 kg Accuracy: Industrial 0.10%, Precision 0.05%, High Precision 0.025% Overload Tolerance: Up to 300% of rated capacity

Robust High-quality Digital Load Cells

Robust and reliable digital load cells

Our stainless steel, hermetically sealed load cells tolerate high overloads, sideloads and torsion, making them ideal for tough industrial applications across all industries.

Accuracy up to 99.99%

Eilersen digital load cells ensure high accuracy, factory-calibrated and compensated for reliability up to 99.99%, making them a top choice for precision weighing.

Easy installation

With no mounting devices needed, Eilersen's patented capacitive technology simplifies installation. With pre-calibrated, plug-and-play load cells, there's no need for calibration. Eilersen load cells can use cables up to 100 meters without affecting calibration, and cables can be replaced without re-calibration.

No maintenance required

Eilersen digital load cells require no regular maintenance. Integrated diagnostics allow for monitoring of individual load cells, and any issues are quickly flagged for easy troubleshooting.

OIML and atex certified

Eilersen load cells are available with OIML and ATEX/IECEx certifications for use in harzardous environments (zone 1, 2, 21, 22).

Fieldbus interfaces

Eilersen digital load cells support multiple fieldbus interfaces, including Profibus DP, PROFINET, EtherCAT, Ethernet IP, Modbus TCP/IP, 4-20mA, and 0-10Vdc.
