Scales for every need

Standard and custom scales

We offer a wide range of standard scales based on digital capacitive load cells, suitable for many diverse applications. We also offer customized scales, with solutions tailored to unique requirements and environments. All scales are IP68 and OIML and ATEX certified, and produced in stainless steel for easy cleaning and maintenance.

Scales for the toughest environments

Eilersen digital load cells are available for weighing up to 500 tons per load cell and capable of withstanding overloads and sideloads up to 1000%, meaning that trucks can safely drive over the platform, even over corners, without damaging the load cells.

Seaway compensation

For the fishing and maritime industry, we deliver solutions that are compensated for seaway, meaning that movements have no effect on the accuracy, thus giving a robust and reliable solutions.

The full benefit of Eilersen weighing solutions

The digital load cells in our scales are pre-calibrated for easy installation, you can easily change the cable without worrying about re-calibration, and you have our full range of digital fieldbus connections as well as analogue I/O available.

Scales of all dimensions

Our customized scales are for customers that need high quality, robust, and reliable weighing solutions where standard solutions don’t apply. We design scales for special needs, be it size, material or special usage.
