The Group Four WPB 1060 is a hermetically sealed stainless steel weigh bar rated to 15,000 lb (6,804 kg) with IP68 protection and a full scale output of 0.75 mV/V ±0.1%. Engineered with a special dirt-repelling design for agricultural and industrial floor scale applications including grain carts, gravity carts, feed mixers, fertilizer and manure spreaders, it performs reliably in the harshest outdoor and wash-down environments.
The WPB 1060 is a hermetically sealed stainless steel weigh bar designed to deliver accurate and reliable load measurement in the most demanding agricultural and industrial environments. A weigh bar integrates into scale frames, grain cart structures, and equipment platforms, functioning as both a structural support member and a precision load sensor. The WPB 1060 features a special dirt-repelling body design that prevents debris buildup and simplifies cleaning, a critical advantage in grain cart and manure spreader applications. Rated at 15,000 lb (6,804 kg) and sealed to IP68, it handles continuous exposure to moisture, grain dust, fertilizer, and manure without moisture ingress or accuracy loss. Full scale output is 0.75 mV/V ±0.1% with an excitation range of 5 to 15 VDC and a compensated temperature range of -10°C to +40°C (14°F to 104°F), with an operating range extending to -20°C to +65°C (-4°F to 149°F) for cold-climate field use. The 34.4 ft (10.5 m) 22 AWG 4-core shielded PVC cable provides ample reach for most agricultural equipment installations.
Most Common Applications: Grain cart weighing, gravity cart scales, feed mixer scales, fertilizer and manure spreader weighing, agricultural floor scales, wash-down industrial floor scales.
