    IP68 stainless-steel junction box for 2 to 4 load cells.

    The WeightechUSA WTX-4 (SKU 40021) combines the signal of two to four load cells for the weight indicator, with an individual trimpot per cell for corner adjustment. The stainless-steel enclosure is sealed to IP68 for outdoor use, and a GORE valve pressure equalizer adds protection against internal condensation.

    02 / 06Applications

    Where the WTX-4 is used.

    The datasheet names automation systems, platform scales, and silos or reactors in industrial yards. As a general-purpose 4-cell junction box it is also used on:

    01

    Platform and floor scales

    Four-corner platforms where each corner must read the same weight.

    02

    Silos, tanks and reactors

    Multi-cell vessel weighing in industrial yards, indoors or outdoors.

    03

    Truck and vehicle scales

    Groups the load cells of a scale section and trims corners to match.

    04

    Livestock and cattle chute scales

    Sealed stainless box for platforms and chutes exposed to washdown and dust.

    03 / 06Construction

    What the box is built from.

    01

    Stainless-steel enclosure

    Encapsulated in stainless steel and perfectly sealed for outdoor use, rated IP68.

    02

    GORE pressure-equalizer valve

    The GORE valve gives additional protection against internal condensation.

    03

    PA66 cable glands

    Polyamide PA66 glands accept cables from 3.5 to 7 mm outer diameter, with excellent sealing and high mechanical resistance.

    04 / 06Corner adjustment

    One trimpot per load cell.

    The corner-adjustment board sits inside the box. Each load cell connects to a group of five terminals (CN1–CN4), and each group is tied to its own trimpot (T1–T4). The adjustment range is approximately 4.2% of output for 350 Ω load cells.

    STEP 1

    Open the jumpers

    Remove jumpers J1, J2, J3 and J4 — always all four together.

    STEP 2

    Center the trimpots

    New boxes ship centered. Otherwise turn each trimpot to the end of its range (sequential click), then 10 turns back.

    STEP 3

    Know the direction

    To lower a corner reading, turn VR1 (T1) and VR2 (T2) clockwise, VR3 (T3) and VR4 (T4) counterclockwise.

    STEP 4

    Compare and trim

    Zero the indicator, load each corner and compare diagonally (cell 1 vs 3, 2 vs 4). Trim the higher corner down to match; repeat until equal.

    How many load cells can I connect?

    Two to four load cells per WTX-4 box.

    Can it be installed outdoors?

    Yes. The stainless-steel enclosure is sealed to IP68 for outdoor use, and the GORE valve adds protection against internal condensation.

    Which cable sizes fit the glands?

    Cables from 3.5 mm to 7 mm outer diameter.
