3.4 Heavy Duty Shear Beam Load Cell
Model PL9000-16 load cell is used in very heavy duty on-board scale applications, particularly with the bolt-on
clamp assembly for single point trunnion mounts. This load cell can also be used in 5th wheel, body pivot or body
rest mounts due to its high dynamic weighing capacity. The load cell has a dynamic rated capacity of 40,000 lb
(18,100 kg). A single piece bearing plate is supplied with the load cell which assembles to the cell with two 1-1/8"
-12UNF x 3.25" L Grade 8 bolts and washers. The top bolt pattern of the load cell is identical to the PL9000-50
load cell allowing it to be fit with Holland and Fontaine 5th wheel trunnions. Model PL9000-50S Shear Slugs are
required when assembling a PL9000-16 load cell. The 1-1/8" bolts must be torqued to 1000 lb/ft (1355 Nm), and
the four each 3/4" bolts used with this load cell must be torqued to 400 lb/ft (542 Nm).
