The Zemic B8D-2,000lb B8D-N5-2K-6YB Shear Beam Load Cell is a shear beam or bending beam load cell rated 2,000 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 Zemic and the model / part number as b8d-n5-2k-6yb.
Shear and bending beam cells are common choices for floor scales, livestock platforms, tanks, hoppers, and low-to-mid capacity industrial scales.
A practical load-cell family for fabricated platforms and summing-box systems.
Works well when mounts control side load and vessel movement.
Often used in platform and chute builds when capacity and environmental rating fit.
Confirm 2,000 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 IP67 (EN 60529). 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 12709 is the right fit.
