PE-3 box-type single point load cell for platform scales
PE-3 Single Point Load Cell is a box-type sensor designed for electronic scales and general industrial weighing. Each cell is corner-adjusted before shipping, so the output stays consistent across the stated load plane.
With capacities from 60 kg to 500 kg and a recommended platform of 600 x 600 mm, the PE-3 suits bench scales, packing scales, counting scales, checkweighers and OEM platform systems.

Product overview
The PE-3 uses a box-type single point structure for medium-capacity platform scales. Its mechanical design gives a stable output, straightforward mounting and dependable performance in ordinary industrial weighing systems.
| Key feature | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Box-type single point structure | Supports platform scale designs with a defined load plane. |
| Corner adjusted before shipping | Keeps performance consistent wherever the load sits on the platform. |
| 60 kg to 500 kg range | Covers bench scales, checkweighers, packing scales and OEM equipment. |
| Moisture-sealed design | Holds up better in the damp conditions common to industrial weighing. |
Typical applications
| Platform scales | Packing scales | OEM systems |
| Bench scales and counting scales | Checkweighers and process weighing | Industrial weighing equipment manufacturers |

Installation notes
- Mount the PE-3 on a flat, solid, clean surface.
- Use M8 mounting bolts of the correct grade for the structure.
- Keep the applied load within the specified load plane.
- Avoid side loads, torsion, shock loading and overload.
- Protect the moisture seal and the cable from mechanical damage.
- Do not weld near the load cell without proper electrical protection.
- Calibrate after installation.
