CTOP Series Dome Compression Load Cells

CTOP Series Dome Compression Load Cells

Dome Compression Load Cells with Self-Aligning Dome

CTop Series Dome Compression Load Cells feature a spherical, dome-shaped upper surface that automatically self-aligns under load. This design distributes force evenly and minimizes side-load effects, delivering stable, repeatable measurements in demanding industrial settings.

Available from 20 kN to 10 MN, CTop cells are built with materials suited to harsh environments, including stainless-steel versions. A version certifiable to ISO 376 is also available, enabling use as a force calibration standard.

Typical Applications

  • Silo and tank weighing with compensation for structural misalignment
  • Calibration of hydraulic presses and compression systems
  • Weighing and monitoring of large industrial equipment and test rigs
