The Sensortronics 65040A-40,000lb Double-Ended Beam Load Cell is a double-ended beam load cell rated 40,000 lb. Use it as a replacement or new-build component only after confirming capacity, dimensions, material, seal rating, electrical signal, and wiring against the scale assembly. The catalog identifies the manufacturer as Vishay-Sensortronics and the model / part number as 11021.
Double-ended beam cells are commonly used in truck scales, rail scales, hoppers, and other heavy multi-cell systems.
A strong fit for weighbridges and vehicle-scale load points.
Works in silo, hopper, and tank weighing when the mount controls load introduction.
Confirm cups, links, mounts, and cable exit before ordering.
Confirm 40,000 lb against dead load, live load, impact, and load distribution.
Check mounting pattern, installed height, load point, cable exit, and platform or vessel geometry before ordering.
Catalog protection is IP68. Verify washdown, outdoor, corrosive, or hazardous exposure before replacement.
Catalog signal is Analog. Confirm excitation, mV/V output, impedance, wiring color code, and indicator/transmitter input.
The safest way to quote or replace a load cell is to verify the installed geometry and the electrical interface together. Capacity alone is not enough.

No. Use the SKU as the order code, then confirm model, capacity, dimensions, wiring, signal, and environment.
Treat blank attributes as items to confirm before ordering. The description only uses available catalog data and conservative application guidance.
Yes. Send photos of the installed cell, the label, mounting dimensions, cable colors, capacity, and the scale application.
Send the old load-cell label, capacity, dimensions, cable details, and application. We will confirm whether 11021 is the right fit.
