Dual mounting load cell 1

[pmblotta]

Does anybody has already have experience on assembling two load cells, side by side, expecting to have a new one, with two times the capacity of each one? Doesn't it inflict in loss in accuracy or in problems during instalation?
I'm collecting information to project a 3,850.00 tons silo, divided in 8 points, each one with two 300.00 tons cells.

Thank's!

That is a standard practice. You won't have any problems if your silo is symmetrical or if you are monitoring the weight inside the silo. But for level measurement, unsymmetrical silos pose great problems.
