Silo Load Cells – Accurate Weighing for Bulk Storage Systems

Reliable Monitoring for Agriculture, Manufacturing & Industrial Applications

When it comes to bulk storage and inventory control, silo load cells provide the most accurate and reliable way to monitor material weight inside silos, tanks, or hoppers. These systems are essential for industries that handle grain, feed, cement, chemicals, and powders β€” ensuring precise stock management, process control, and compliance with trade regulations.

At Sensors and Gauges, we supply and support silo load cell systems with complete installation kits, digital indicators, and calibration services.


What are Silo Load Cells?

A silo load cell is a high-capacity sensor mounted at the base of a silo, tank, or hopper. By measuring the compression force exerted by the stored material, the system can provide real-time weight readings and integrate with automation controls.
