The Rice Lake EL146 is a premium 4-wire load cell cable engineered to provide exceptional signal quality and durability. The cable’s construction uses 20 AWG tinned copper wire, stranded specifically to ensure flexibility during installation and in dynamic applications. Its braided shielding provides robust protection against Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), ensuring that the low-level signals from your load cells are transmitted without degradation. For standard environments, the red PVC jacket offers reliable protection and is complemented by industry-standard color-coded conductors, making installation and troubleshooting straightforward.
For operations in harsh or hostile environments, the EL146HE variant offers enhanced protection with a specialized polyurethane jacket. This jacketing provides superior resistance to chemicals, oils, and abrasion, significantly extending the cable's lifespan in demanding settings. The HE cable also features a foil overbraid shield, delivering unmatched durability while maintaining the extreme flexibility required for complex routing. Whether you are extending an existing system, repairing a damaged line, or installing new equipment, both versions of the EL146 are designed to meet the strict performance criteria of Rice Lake, ensuring a reliable connection and accurate weighing data.
