tecsis LP’s Model XLRW load cell is an inline load cell with an integral tongue and yoke shackle design designed for the oil & gas industry. This unit monitors mast and hook weight up to 40,000 lb with an accuracy of ±0.50% FSO and is created to measure tension loads in wireline and slickline applications including well intervention, well logging, and tool retrieval.

The all-welded stainless steel Model XLRW load cell is engineered for heavy-duty use with reliable bonded foil strain gage sensing elements and a field-replaceable amplifier. The unit operates on ±15 V dc excitation and is available with analog 1.5 V dc or digital RS485 output. Operating temperature is -65 F to +250 F, compensated from -20 F to +140 F.

Electrical termination is a hermetic, bayonet-style 8-pin connector, with alternative electrical connections available for integration into new or existing systems.
