The Sensortronics 65083-2.5Klb 65083-02E5-A5-08X Shear Beam Load Cell is a shear beam or bending beam load cell rated 2.5K 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 Sensortronics and the model / part number as 65083-02E5-A5-08X.
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 2.5K 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 / IP69K. 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 12456 is the right fit.
