1. Introduction
The TSA load cell mount is used for medium to heavy capacity truck, horizontal
vessel, and general purpose weighing applications. The mounts are constructed of
cast steel and iron, and are available in two sizes with capacities of 10,000 lb to
75,000 lb. In most applications, the need for safety check rods, expansion assem-
blies and other peripheral hardware is eliminated by the "Unilink" suspension
design and the load equalizer pad. These design elements provide self-checking and
improved weight distribution.
The TSA mounts use the Sensortronics 65058 double-ended shear beam load cell,
which is made of high alloy tool steel, environmentally protected, and rated for a
150% maximum overload.
