How to install a load cell?

Mounting the load cell on the support structure and rigid substrate ensures that the load is evenly transferred from the bottom of the load cell to the support structure. The structure must also have the ability to support the force corresponding to the load. In order to comply with the installation of the load cell, it may be necessary to install auxiliary tools. You can ask the design engineer for help to determine the weight of each interference possibility. Special consideration needs to be given to weighing tanks, thermal expansion, monitoring levels, and horizontal movement of certain tank shapes and supporting structures to avoid measurement distortion. Your load cell support structure may require end stops to limit lateral deflection, and elastic bearings can also adjust the heat between the storage tank and the load cell. In addition, the load cell needs to be centered vertically to allow it to be stressed vertically, as shown in the following figure:
