Hydraulic Load Cell – Heavy-Duty Force Measurement Solutions

Discover Hydraulic Load Cells for high-capacity, reliable force and weight measurement in industrial and testing applications. Sensors and Gauges offers premium hydraulic load cells, sensors, gauges, and custom-engineered solutions.

A Hydraulic Load Cell is a robust force transducer that uses hydraulic pressure to measure weight or force. Known for high-capacity applications and reliability in harsh environments, hydraulic load cells are widely used in industrial, construction, and testing applications. At Sensors and Gauges, we supply hydraulic load cells along with a full range of sensors, gauges, and custom-engineered solutions — making us your one-stop solution for precision, heavy-duty measurement systems.


What is a Hydraulic Load Cell?

A Hydraulic Load Cell converts mechanical force into hydraulic pressure within a fluid-filled chamber. This pressure is then measured using a transducer or pressure gauge to calculate the applied load. Hydraulic load cells are particularly effective in high-capacity or outdoor environments where electronic load cells may be less practical.

Key Features:

  • High Load Capacity – Suitable for heavy industrial and construction applications.

  • Durable & Rugged Design – Withstands harsh environments, vibration, and extreme temperatures.

  • Reliable Accuracy – Provides precise measurements for high-force applications.

  • Simple Installation – Can be integrated with hydraulic or mechanical systems.

  • Maintenance-Friendly – Minimal electronics reduce risk of damage in tough conditions.


Benefits of Hydraulic Load Cells

  • Heavy-Duty Force Measurement – Perfect for industrial, construction, and mining applications.

  • Rugged & Reliable – Works well in extreme temperatures, wet conditions, and dusty environments.

  • Wide Capacity Range – From tens of tons to thousands of tons.

  • Versatile Applications – Ideal for testing, weighing, and force monitoring.

  • Customizable Designs – Available for specific capacities, sizes, or configurations.


Applications of Hydraulic Load Cells

Hydraulic Load Cells are commonly used in:

  • Industrial Weighing – Hoppers, tanks, silos, and large-scale industrial scales.

  • Construction & Civil Engineering – Measuring loads in cranes, bridges, and structural components.

  • Heavy Machinery – Force monitoring in presses, hydraulic jacks, and lifting equipment.

  • Material Testing & R&D – High-capacity testing for metals, composites, and structural materials.

  • Offshore & Marine Applications – Measuring loads in shipbuilding or oil rig structures.

  • Aerospace & Automotive Testing – High-force component testing and stress analysis.
