Tedea-Huntleigh – Precision Engineering by Vishay for Load Cells
Global Standards with Local Alternative Options
Tedea-Huntleigh, a brand under VPG (Vishay Precision Group), is renowned worldwide for high-quality load cells. Their devices deliver excellent accuracy, robustness, and consistency — trusted in industries such as weighing, process control, packaging, and material testing.
While Tedea-Huntleigh is premium, at Sensors and Gauges we offer comparable load cell solutions with local stock, support, and competitive value so you can meet specs without sacrificing time or budget.
What Is Tedea-Huntleigh Known For?
Diverse Product Range — From low-capacity single-point aluminium load cells (suitable for bench, retail, counting scales) to high-capacity compression and bending ring models for silos, weighbridges, tanks, and industrial platforms. vishay-loadcells-intertechnology.com+2ricelake.com+2
High Accuracy & Standards — Their load cells often carry certifications such as OIML, NTEP, making them fit for legal trade and regulated applications. ricelake.com+2pavonesistemi.com+2
Durability & Environmental Protection — Many models are built with stainless steel or high-grade alloys, hermetically sealed, IP67/IP68 rated. They endure harsh environments and overload/sideload stresses. ricelake.com+2WeightechUSA+2
Signature Models:
The 220 series: bending ring compression cells, low profile, up to large tons capacity. ricelake.com+1
3411/3421 series: single-ended beam load cells in alloy or stainless steel; good for platform, pallet, or process weighing. ricelake.com
Model 614 S-Type: for tension/compression applications, good protection, sense wires for stability. WeightechUSA
Key Specifications & What Makes Them Competitive
Here are some specs that tend to distinguish Tedea-Huntleigh load cells:
For high-accuracy weighing and legal trade, low error ensures result reliability.
Capacity Range
From small kilograms (single points, bench scales) up to tens of thousands of kg or several tens of tons (compression, ring cells). pavonesistemi.com+2ricelake.com+2
You can cover many use-cases with a single brand line.
Environmental Ratings
Many are IP67/IP68, stainless steel, hermetically sealed; sense leads, shielding in cables. ricelake.com+1
Protection against dust, moisture, temperature variation, and long-term reliability.
Overload/Sideload/Safety Margins
Safe overload typically ~150% or more; side-load resistances in beam models; rigid ring/bending designs for weighbridges. ricelake.com+1
Helps prevent damage under unexpected loads or misuse.
Output & Bridge Data
Standard mV/V output, bridge resistance & input resistance matched well; sense wires in some models. ricelake.com+1
Matching with instrumentation/indicator becomes easier; electrical noise & temperature drift minimized.
Common Applications of Tedea-Huntleigh Load Cells
Tedea-Huntleigh load cells are well suited for:
Weighbridges / truck scales / heavy platform scales — especially ring/bending ring style (like “220” series) ricelake.com+1
Industrial tank, silo, hopper weighing — environments that need rugged performance and protection. pavonesistemi.com+1
Force testing, tension/compression tasks — S-Type models with dual action (push/pull) WeightechUSA
Comparing with Local Alternatives (Sensors & Gauges)
You might consider whether to use a Tedea-Huntleigh unit or a local alternative. Here’s how you might compare:
Factor
What Tedea-Huntleigh Offers
What to Look for / What Local Alternatives Should Provide
Performance & Certification
Excellent; many models certified, high accuracy.
Local models should likewise offer OIML / NTEP or relevant standards, calibration documentation.
Lead Time & Cost
Often imported, may involve shipping & duty.
Local stock = faster delivery; possibly lower total cost.
Support & Maintenance
Good for global brand, but you may rely on local distributor.
Proximity and local technical ability (Sensors & Gauges) gives easier maintenance, calibration, spare parts.
Environmental Fit
Many models are rugged, but versions needed must match your environment (temperature, washdown, etc.).
Choosing models built for local climate, with appropriate sealing/accessory support.
How Sensors & Gauges Matches Up
Here’s how your company can be positioned as a strong choice for customers considering Tedea-Huntleigh:
Product lines that match many of the same categories: Single-Point Load Cells, S-Type Cells, Compression Load Cells, Shear Beams, etc. (using internal links for customers to view.)
Local stock of those products reduces waiting time.
Clear specification and documentation (bridge resistance, certification, IP ratings) so customers can make direct comparisons.
Accessories and mounting solutions (to ensure correct install, just like the robust engineering Tedea-Huntleigh demands).
Use these internal links to highlight your matching work:
"If specifications of a Tedea-Huntleigh model satisfy your application, find a local equivalent with the same key specs (accuracy, capacity, IP rating, overload margin). That way you maintain performance while improving support, lead-time and total cost."
